LOCAL AUTHORITIES CRACK DOWN AS NEO-NAZI VIOLENCE SPREADS ACROSS RUSSIA

In cities throughout Russia, skinhead violence continues to flare up,

news media continue to criticize the authorities for not taking more
active measures to stop what one paper has termed "a plague" of neo-Nazi
violence spreading across Russia.
