A bag emblazoned with swastikas has been taken off the shelves at fashion chain Zara.The Spanish business has been forced to apologise after getting inundated with complaints about the £39 item.The holdall style bag had four green swastikas stitched in alongside images of bike's, animals, and plants.19 year old Rachel Hatton of Ashford, Kent, bought one of the bags before spotting the offensive symbol.She returned the bag and had her money refunded.The swastika - actually an ancient good luck sign for Hindus and Buddhists, was used by Adolf Hitler as the emblem of Nazi Germany
