A court in the Feldkirch District of Austria found a 34-year-old man guilty on Monday of violating the country's anti-Nazi laws for his Facebook posts claiming that Jews made up stories about mass killings in gas chambers to taint Adolf Hitler's image should he have won World War II.
He was also convicted for a separate post he made calling Muslims "vermin". The court ordered him to pay a fine of 1,440 euros ($1,690) and sentenced him to a suspended one-year prison term. The man's identity was kept private under Austrian law.
