Neighbours star under investigation over alleged Nazi salute [Video]

Neighbours star Damien Richardson is the subject of a police investigation after he was recorded allegedly performing the Nazi salute.

The actor, known for his role as Gary Canning in the TV soap, was speaking at a National Workers Alliance meeting in Melbourne in September when he allegedly performed the gesture.

It was met with cheers and a round of applause.

It is unlawful in Victoria to perform the Nazi salute or display symbols used by the Nazi party in public.

The laws were introduced in the state back in October 2023.
