LAUTERBACH, Germany (AFP) - A German court fined a man who celebrated his neighbour's death by letting off fireworks and singing "it's a wonderful day today".

The 63-year-old pensioner from Ulrichtstein, western Germany, lit three New Year's fireworks as the coffin of his homosexual neighbour was carried out of the house. He also broke loudly into song.

The court agreed that he had insulted the memory of the deceased and fined him 2,700 euros (3,100 dollars) after the dead man's partner complained to the authorities.
