- damn, really?
Shared Telegram Post containing a swastika image: Hamburg AfD Politician Escapes Penalty - Hamiltonian AfD politician pen-pal shares swastika-emblazoned post on Telegram
In an unexpected turn of events, the amount of the fine imposed on Hamburg AfD politician, Nicole Jordan, for sharing a controversial Telegram post with a swastika has been disclosed. The court has announced a fine of 900 euros.
Initially, the fine amount was not public, but reports suggested it involved 40 daily fines, without specifying the exact figure. Media speculations pegged the fine as high as 3200 euros. However, the penalty order is not final and is subject to legal challenges.
According to the prosecution's indictment, the Telegram post in question was a critical commentary on the government's COVID-19 pandemic responses, drawing parallels to the NS dictatorship. The case has seen two court dates, with a previous hearing in May being cancelled.
This ruling marks another controversy in the ongoing political landscape, raising questions about free speech and the boundaries of acceptable discourse.
