>>MILAN - An Italian court has ruled in favour of the expulsion of ex-Ku Klux
>>Klan leader and former Louisiana politician David Duke from Italy, where he
>>had been living for a year and a half, local police said on Thursday.
>
>>Duke, 63, moved to the Valle di Cadore mountain village after being granted
>>a visa to study and write there by the Italian embassy in Malta, said
>>Luciano Meneghetti, deputy police chief in the northern Italian province of
>>Belluno.
>
>>Italian police subsequently found that Switzerland had issued in 2009 a
>>travel and residence ban against Duke valid throughout the entire Schengen
>>area, a group of 26 European countries that have abolished internal border
>>controls.
>
>>Duke had tried to fight an initial request to leave Italy by lodging an
>>appeal with the Belluno administrative court.
>
>>Meneghetti said the court had rejected the appeal and ruled in favour of
>>the expulsion of Duke, whom it considered "socially dangerous for his
>>racist and anti-semitic views".
>
>>Duke's Italian lawyer Filippo Augusto said the former U.S. politician left
>>Italy immediately after the court ruling. He said Duke could appeal again
>>but no decision had yet been taken.
