And when a government minister expressed concern, she was threatened – the latest in a string of threats against female politicians by neo-Nazis.
Now, the federal police have raised the alarm, raising questions about the risk of further political violence – and why neo-Nazis have been allowed to build their movement.
Today, crime reporter at The Age, Sherryn Groch, on the National Socialist Network’s threats and whether authorities are doing enough to stop them.
