Nazis Murder Gay Man in Brazil
A gang of Brazilian Neo-Nazis beat a homosexual man to death at the weekend after a heavy drinking session to celebrate the accession to government of the FPO [Freedom Party] in Austria. The 30 skinheads, including two teenage girls, went on the rampage in Sao Paolo’s gay district armed with chains and knuckle-dusters. They followed Mr Edson Neris da Silva [35] and his boyfriend, Mr Dario Pereira [30] as they left a bar and attacked them on the street. Mr da Silva died on the spot.
