Purported Conn. white supremacist faces sentencing (USA)

A purported white supremacist from Connecticut faces sentencing for what authorities describe as a plan to sell a rifle to the Ku Klux Klan.

William Bolton of Milford is scheduled to be sentenced Wednesday in federal court in Bridgeport for robbery conspiracy and sale of a firearm to a felon.

Prosecutors say Bolton joined Connecticut's largest white supremacist group, Battalion 14, formerly known as the White Wolves, and participated in a plan to sell a sawed-off rifle to the KKK. The buyer was a cooperating government witness.

Authorities said in court papers supplying a gun to the KKK "is like putting a match to the dry kindling of one of this country's most well-known, long-term and destructive reigns of hate motivated violence."

Bolton faces about three years under sentencing guidelines.

Rise in racist abuse reported (Switzerland)

Reported cases of racism against blacks and Muslims went up in Switzerland in 2010.

Incidents mainly happened in public areas, at work and in contact with the police, according to the 2010 report by the Federal Commission against Racism and the non-governmental humanrights.ch.

It mainly took the form of verbal abuse.

“It is striking how often those accused were in socio-economic positions of power and used this position, directly or indirectly against the victims,” the report says.

Those affected came from a wide range of backgrounds, and were both Swiss and immigrants.

Not all abuse is reported and the real figure is believed to be much higher, the report says.

The report calls on cantons to improve measures protecting people against discrimination.
