CANOE -- Canada: Germany jails Ernst Zundel

A day after Ernst Zundel was deported from Canada, a German judge ordered the white supremacist held in jail after arraigning him Wednesday on charges of denying the Holocaust and inciting hatred. Zundel made no statement at the closed hearing in the southwestern city of Mannheim, court spokesman Ulrich Krehbiel said. The judge remanded Zundel to a Mannheim jail. German prosecutors had a 2003 arrest warrant against Zundel for decades of anti-Semitic activities, including repeated denials of the Holocaust - a crime in Germany. Because Zundel's U.S.-based Holocaust-denying website is available in Germany, he is considered to be spreading his message to Germans. siehe auch: Europe: Holocaust Denier Ernst Zundel Formally Charged in Germany After Deportation From Canada, Neo-Nazi deported from Canada, Holocaust denier Zundel charged in German court, Trial could turn Zundel into neo-Nazi martyr: observer, Deported Holocaust Denier Arrives in Germany, Canada deports Holocaust denier.
