    >justifying or approving the genocide committed during the Second World War, thus violating the anti-negationism law;

    >violations of weapons legislation, in particular the sale of pepper spray (only for Van Langenhove).

    >Various people and institutions have filed civil proceedings before the trial, because they believe they are victims of Schild & Friends.

    >This concerns equal opportunities center Unia, the League for Human Rights and Ghent University. In addition, former magistrate Henri Heimans has also filed a civil suit: his parents survived the Nazi concentration camps, he feels shocked by the memes that make fun of the Holocaust.

    >A final civil party is ex-VRT employee Jihad Van Puymbroeck. She says that she has been the target of attacks by the far-right group remarkably often.
