Bavaria has cancelled plans to publish a new reprint of Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf.

The move comes as the German state's legal power to ban the book expires in 2015.

Bavaria owns the copyright to Mein Kampf and has banned any republication of the Nazi leader's book, the Daily Star reports.

However the ban expires in 2015, exactly 70 years after Hitler shot himself in a bunker in Berlin.

According to the report, Bavaria had planned to publish a new edition of the book with critical commentary from a Munich-based historical institute.

However the reprint has been cancelled after discussions with Holocaust victims and their families, the report added.
