MOSCOW, August 28 (RAPSI) - A resident of Yekaterinburg, Russia's fourth-largest city, will be tried for publishing Adolf Hitler's "Mein Kampf" on the Internet, the federal Investigative Committee announced Wednesday.
According to investigators, the man uploaded the book to the Internet from his PC. He also posted on the Internet a pornographic video file. Moreover, he is suspected of the ammunition storage.
"Mein Kampf" was declared extremist by Ufa's Kirovsky District Court on March 24, 2010. The court found that the book contains extremist political and racial ideological ideas.
In December 2012, the Yekaterinburg Ordzhonikidzevsky District Court sentenced another Urals resident Yevgeny Zaytsev to 200 hours of compulsory community service for publishing this book on the Internet. In October, a Yekaterinburg court fined a university employee 100,000 rubles ($3,019) for a similar offense.
