Germany restricts neo-Nazi marches

Germany restricts neo-Nazi marches
BERLIN (Reuters) - Germany's lower house of parliament has approved curbs on neo-Nazi marches because of concerns extremists may tarnish events in central Berlin in May marking the end of World War Two in Europe.
Under the new legislation, far-right demonstrations would be kept away from sites dedicated to victims of the Nazi regime.
Germany's new central Holocaust memorial will be specially protected, while the country's 16 federal states would decide themselves which historically sensitive sites to shield from the country's liberal rules on demonstrations and free speech.
