STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - A Swedish court sentenced three people to jail on Wednesday over their involvement in a violent neo-Nazi attack on an anti-racist demonstration last December that shocked a country proud of its reputation for tolerance.

Around 30 neo-Nazis attacked a rally in the Stockholm suburb of Karrtorp on December 15, throwing bottles and firecrackers at marchers. Two people were stabbed and 26 people were detained by police. Seven of them were charged with violent disorder.
