Interior Minister Matus Sutaj Estok Confirms Police Raid on Neo-Nazi Group

Bratislava, May 20 (TASR) - Interior Minister Matus Sutaj Estok (Voice-SD) at a press conference on Tuesday confirmed that Bratislava region police have carried out a raid against the Valhalla neo-Nazi group, with Trnava region police probably also involved in the operation. "Several weeks ago, various media also reported on a group of neo-Nazis who were primarily harassing residents of Bratislava. These were young people. Certain actions are still being completed at this time. It concerns a neo-Nazi group called Valhalla, which seems to be inclined towards far-right extremism," stated Sutaj Estok. Bratislava region police spokesperson Michal Szeiff has confirmed for TASR that the police have carried out activities related to an investigation into extremist criminal activity in Bratislava as of the early hours of Tuesday morning. lin/df
