Neo-Nazis to be tried for murder of Mozambican

A court in Berlin on Tuesday ordered three German men to stand trial this month on murder charges for beating and kicking a Mozambique national to death in one of the worst cases in a recent outbreak of neo-Nazi violence in Germany, news reports said. Two 16-year-olds, whose names were not released, and a 24-year-old identified only as Enrico H, were charged for the 11 June attack. Alberto Adriano, a 39-year-old father of three who worked in a slaughterhouse in the east German city of Dessau, died after being kicked and beaten in a city park.
