Ustasha symbols to soon be banned in Austria

Austria's Interior Minister Herbert Kickl announced a plan to include Ustasha symbols into the expanded list of banned symbols in this country.

The Austrian daily “Kleine Zeitung” reported that the list will contain Ustasha symbols which were also used by Croatian fans in Austria during the World Football Championship.

The fine for the use of such symbols will be EUR 4,000 or a prison sentence of up to one year.

The daily also adds that, so far, the list of banned symbols only contained the symbols of the so-called Islamic State and Al-Qaeda.

The list will be expanded from March 2019 and it will include symbols of extremist groups such as Hamas, PKK, the Muslim Brotherhood and the Turkish organization Gray Wolves.
