  1. Auto-translated extract:
    Czech police are prosecuting forty people for publicly supporting the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Prosecutors have already indicted the first cases and the main trial is pending. According to Aktuálně.cz, however, one case has already been sentenced. A German citizen must leave the Czech Republic for approving of Russia’s armed attack on Ukraine, a court has expelled him. The verdict is not yet final.

    Expaned article:

    It was March 26 of this year, one month and two days after the beginning of the Russian war in Ukraine. From the Reitzenhain – Hora Svatého Šebestián border crossing, a German citizen headed to the Czech Republic by car. He drove to the village of Přečaply, where he refueled at a gas station. Then he went to nearby Chomutov. And as Aktuálně.cz found out, this may be his last trip to the Czech Republic.

    “On the glass of the back door, he had a clearly visible sheet of A4 paper stuck on the inside with a printed capital letter ‘Z’, size 12 by 17 centimeters, in the orange-black color of the so-called St. George’s ribbon and the inscription ‘We will not leave ours’ in the Russian language,” Aktuálně.cz reported Petr Vaněk, spokesman of the Chomutov District Court, where the German was held accountable for supporting the invasion.

    The public prosecutor indicted the German citizen in question back in March. It was then proven in court that the mentioned symbols clearly aimed to openly support the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Shortly after the start of the occupation of Ukraine, the supreme prosecutor Igor Stříž pointed out that such an attitude is criminal. And the court ruled in this vein in June.

  2. Welp, unfortunately “German citizen” and “German” are not the same for decades now. This is a Russian who unfortunately got our citizenship.
