Dnes ho Krajsk\u00fd s\u00fad v Bambergu v druhostup\u0148ovom konan\u00ed oslobodil.<\/p>\n
Poslanky\u0148a Eur\u00f3pskeho parlamentu za skupinu ESN Mary KHAN uviedla:<\/p>\n
\u201cTento pr\u00edpad bol od sam\u00e9ho za\u010diatku ove\u013ea viac ne\u017e len pr\u00e1vny spor o jedin\u00fd mem. Bol to politick\u00fd preceden\u010dn\u00fd pr\u00edpad, ktor\u00fd nemilosrdne odhalil, ak\u00e9 krehk\u00e9 sa stali sloboda prejavu a sloboda tla\u010de, ke\u010f sa na kritiku vl\u00e1dy \u010doraz \u010dastej\u0161ie reaguje trestn\u00fdm pr\u00e1vom. Satirick\u00fd pr\u00edspevok \u2013 ktor\u00fd u\u017e dlho tvor\u00ed samotn\u00e9 jadro demokratickej diskusie \u2013 bol kriminalizovan\u00fd. \u00a7 188 nemeck\u00e9ho trestn\u00e9ho z\u00e1konn\u00edka (StGB) sa tak \u010doraz viac men\u00ed na n\u00e1stroj zastra\u0161ovania nepohodln\u00fdch hlasov a kritickej \u017eurnalistiky. To, \u017ee toto \u0161kandal\u00f3zne rozhodnutie bolo teraz zru\u0161en\u00e9, je dlho o\u010dak\u00e1van\u00fd krok.\u201d<\/p>\n
Poslanky\u0148a Eur\u00f3pskeho parlamentu Petra Stegerov\u00e1, ktor\u00e1 sa zasadzuje za slobodu, tie\u017e v\u00fdslovne priv\u00edtala oslobodenie:<\/p>\n
\u201cDne\u0161n\u00e9 oslobodenie je v\u00ed\u0165azstvom rozumu nad politickou precitlivenos\u0165ou. Ke\u010f s\u00fa novin\u00e1ri \u0165ahan\u00ed pred s\u00fady za ostr\u00fa, satirick\u00fa kritiku \u010dlenov vl\u00e1dy, demokracia nie je chr\u00e1nen\u00e1 \u2013 je po\u0161kodzovan\u00e1. Slobodn\u00e1 spolo\u010dnos\u0165 mus\u00ed by\u0165 schopn\u00e1 znies\u0165 kritiku, preh\u00e1\u0148anie a dokonca aj provok\u00e1cie, najm\u00e4 ak s\u00fa namieren\u00e9 proti t\u00fdm, ktor\u00ed s\u00fa pri moci.\u201d<\/p>\n
Steger tie\u017e varoval pred nebezpe\u010dn\u00fdm trendom v tom, ako sa zaobch\u00e1dza s m\u00e9diami kritick\u00fdmi vo\u010di vl\u00e1de:<\/p>\n
\u201cObzvl\u00e1\u0161\u0165 alarmuj\u00face je, \u017ee tak\u00e9to konania sa takmer v\u00fdlu\u010dne t\u00fdkaj\u00fa kritick\u00fdch novin\u00e1rov, ktor\u00ed sa nepodria\u010fuj\u00fa ofici\u00e1lnej l\u00ednii. Trestn\u00e9 pr\u00e1vo sa nesmie nikdy zneu\u017e\u00edva\u0165 na ochranu politickej moci pred v\u00fdsmechom, kritikou alebo verejnou kontrolou. T\u00ed, ktor\u00ed kriminalizuj\u00fa satiru, pripravuj\u00fa p\u00f4du pre cenz\u00faru.\u201d<\/p>\n
Na z\u00e1ver Mary Khan zd\u00f4raznila:<\/p>\n
\u201cDne\u0161n\u00fd rozsudok nie je len osobn\u00fdm \u00faspechom Davida Bendelsa, ale aj d\u00f4le\u017eit\u00fdm sign\u00e1lom pre v\u0161etk\u00fdch novin\u00e1rov a ob\u010danov v Eur\u00f3pe. Sloboda prejavu nie je v\u00fdsadou udelenou \u0161t\u00e1tom, ale nezadate\u013en\u00fdm z\u00e1kladn\u00fdm pr\u00e1vom. Ak zomrie sloboda prejavu, zomr\u00fa s \u0148ou aj sloboda, demokracia a pr\u00e1vny \u0161t\u00e1t.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
