Chinese tourists arrested for making Hitler salutes outside Reichstag

Berlin police detain two men after they photographed each other striking Nazi-era poses outside German parliament

Berlin police officers say they detained two men, aged 36 and 49, after they were seen striking the Nazi-era pose and photographing each other with their mobile phones.

They face charges for “using symbols of illegal organisations”, the police said in a statement, and were released after posting bail of €500 (£450) each.

Germany has strict laws on hate speech and symbols linked to Hitler and the Nazis, who ruled between 1933 and 1945.

**I suspect you had two idiots who potentially did not realize Germany does not share their keen interest in Nazi salutes in this day and age and thought it would be funny to pose doing those particular salutes.
