Austrian solider imprisoned for sharing photos of swastika tattoo online

An Austrian solider has been imprisoned for sharing photos of his swastika tattoo online.

The man had already received a suspended sentence for previously disseminating photos of Nazi memorabilia from World War II online, the displaying of which is illegal in Austria.

The online distribution of his tattoo photos then activated his sentence, and he has received nineteen months in prison.

The antisemitic tattoo appears on one of the soldier’s testicles. He stated that he was “very drunk” when he underwent the procedure.
