In a raid on a discotheque frequented by neo-Nazis, German police arrested 43 skinheads and seized starter pistols, tear-gas canisters, flick-knives, brass knuckles and baseball bats, and illegal right- wing propaganda including a swastika flag, AP reports from Straubing.

The 31 men and 12 women were arrested in the Bavarian village of Otzing at the Rainbow disco. All but three, who were suspects in an earlier attack on Angolan asylum- seekers, were later released.
