SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/python from 'read' accesses on the lnk_file /var/www/html.

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests  ***************************

If you believe that python should be allowed read access on the html lnk_file by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# grep fail2ban-client /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp

This looks like you did local customization

/var/www/html is not a link on a normal system.
