Three German police cadets were suspended from a police academy in the eastern German town of Bautzen on Thursday after allegedly shouting Nazi slogans, as reported by Deutsche Welle.
The three trainees allegedly shouted the Nazi German chant "Sieg Heil" (Hail Victory) from an open window of a private residence, according to reports.
Considered as an anti-constitutional attitude, the students could face permanent expulsion as an investigation by the criminal police continues.
