SWITZERLAND: Increasing harassment
artdoc August=1994

Two months before the national referendum on the ratification of
the UN Anti-Racism Convention racial harassment is on the
increase. After a series of attacks against immigrants,
especially Tamils, there was a change of tactic on the night of
27 July. A group of six young skinheads attacked a group of boy
scouts sleeping out in the forest. The neo-nazis forced them to
undress and shout `Heil Hitler' and other nazi slogans. The boys
were badly beaten and humiliated. Six skinheads have admitted the
offence and openly admitted their support for the far right.
