Yodeller that offended Islamic neighbours in fresh row - General News - Austrian Independent Online News - English Newspaper
I have gained respect for yodelling :mrgreen:
A report claiming that an Austrian was sentenced in court for offending his Muslim neighbours by yodelling has attracted massive interest across the world - and heated debate from left and right.
Hundreds of readers posted comments and sent emails on the subject after we published it with some demanding Muslims accept Austrian culture - and others that the yodeller had deliberately tried to provoke his neighbours whose prayers were played through a loudspeaker.
The story was originally published in the Kronen Zeitung newspaper that said Austrian Helmut G. was found guilty of deliberately disrupting his neighbours at prayer, and made to pay a fine.
