Police say there is little that can be done against a man who made a Nazi salute while urinating on a memorial in a former concentration camp. Photos of Zdenek Appl, 24, urinating next to the Star of David at the Theresienstad concentration, were handed to Czech police by a disgusted former friend. But the force investigated have admitted it may be difficult to take legal action against Appl, as promoting Nazi ideology is not illegal in the Czech Republic like it is in neighbouring Germany or Austria.

As well as being a labour site for German, Austrian and _ Jews, it served as a 'holding pen' for Czech Jews before they were sent to other concentration camps to be killed.
