Current Affairs New verdict in "Mein Kampf" case

14-08-2003 | Pavla Horáková

Michal Zitko, the man who published the first complete Czech translation of Adolf Hitler's manifesto "Mein Kampf" three years ago, has been sentenced in Prague for the second time. The first time he got a three-year suspended sentence for supporting or promoting a movement that aids the suppression of the rights of man. But the Supreme Court struck down the sentence stating the prosecution was unable to specify which movement Mr Zitko had allegedly promoted by publishing "Mein Kampf". The case was returned to the district court which this week passed a new verdict.
