'Nostalgic bottles' sold in Austria 

 

The probe was launched last year after complaints that a website posting showed bottles with portraits of Hitler and the swastika. The site offered sales of spirits in "nostalgic bottles of former historical greats."

 

The man was identified only as Roland M., in keeping with Austrian privacy laws. Legal officials say he was motivated by profit, not ideology.

 

The prosecutor's office said Thursday the man stopped sales when legal action against him started.
