Serbian police ban neo-Nazi march

Serbia's police on Wednesday banned a neo-Nazi march planned for next month in a northern city after an outrage among Jewish and liberal groups.

The group Nacionalni Stroj, or National Guard, had announced plans to hold the October 7 march against the secession of Serbia's separatist Kosovo province in Novi Sad, some 30 miles north of Belgrade. Serbia's police, apparently acting on protests by human rights and other nongovernment groups, said in a statement that the march would be banned. (AP)
