Neo-Nazi Leader
Is Sentenced
Bonn (JTA) — A neo-Nazi leader
whose life was the subject of a
documentary has been sentenced
by a Berlin court to 31/2 years in
j ail.
Bela Ewald Althans, 29, was
convicted of racist incitement,
defamation and Holocaust denial
in connection with the film, Pro-
fession: Neo-Nazi.
"The accused is not a violent
man but he is still just as dan-
gerous to the community," Judge
Hans-Juergen Bruening said,
adding, "Judicial officials in Ger-
many have been astonishingly re-
luctant to prosecute agitation like
this."
Mr. Althans' speeches were the
nourishing ground for violent
acts, the court also said.
The film, a chronicle of Mr. Al-
thans' activities, is a series of in-
terviews with him and other
neo-Nazis.
In the film, Mr. Althans tells
an American visitor to the former
Auschwitz death camp that the
Holocaust was a myth, claiming
that it was technically impossi-
ble to gas the Jews and cremate
them. Mr. Althans also praises
Adolf Hitler in the documentary.
When the film was released in
1993, Germany banned it be-
cause Holocaust denial is a crim-
inal act here.
In his testimony before the
Berlin court, Mr. Althans reject-
ed the charges, describing him-
self as a non-Nazi, who had long
given up his ultranationalist
views.
Mr. Althans described himself
as a victim of the state prosecu-
tion. He charged that Winfrid Bo-
nengel, the director of the
documentary, intentfully "ma-
nipulated" the footage to paint
a negative image of its hero.
When the documentary was
released, the producers claimed
that they had merely wanted to
show the young generation of
neo-Nazis as they were.
But critics of the 83-minute
film said it was propagandistic,
serving the causes of the neo-Nazi
movement, such as spreading
Holocaust denial, called the
"Auschwitz lie" in Germany.
The court dismissed Mr. Al-
thans' claim that he had agreed
to take part in the movie to "draw
an end line to his neo-Nazi past."
Had he really wanted to dis-
associate himself of his past, saV
the court, he would have ha(
plenty of opportunities, besides
the controversial documentary.
Last year, Mr. Althans was
sentenced to 18 months impris-
onment by the Munich state
court for having distributed racist
propaganda, including anti-Se-
mitic video clips produced during
World War II.
Mr. Althans can serve the two
sentences concurrently.
