A 28-year old man has died following head trauma when attacked by right-wing extremists participating in a demonstration in Helsinki, Finland, on September 10th
In a statement posted on Facebook the father of young man details how "he was attacked in connection the the Resistance movement protest, with one of their skinheads assaulting my son, causing him serious head trauma", continuing that he "later died because of this totally unnecessary violence".
This description of events fits with the narrative produced by the nazis themselves, posted on their homepage, where they called the attack a "disciplinary action", and on a video posted by them a man is seen lying bloodied on the street.

Local social democrats have been targets for nazi threats previous to this.
