Reuters reports that Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf has been banned in Russia.
The book has "a militaristic outlook and justifies discrimination and destruction of non-Aryan races and reflects ideas which, when implemented, started World War Two," the prosecutor general's office said in a statement.
"Up to now, Mein Kampf was not recognized as extremist," it said, announcing the ban and the addition of the book to a federal list of extremist materials. It had been available in some shops and online, the statement said.
The ban comes over concerns about the rise of far-right politics and hate attacks in Russia. Meanwhile, the book is a surprise hit in the Bangladeshi capital, Dhaka.
