As of 22.01.2009, Susanne Winter, a lawyer and politician for the right-wing Freedom Party of Austria received a 3-month conditional sentence, with the additional fine of 24.000 EUR, for "incitement and degradation of religious doctrines" as she stated that the Islamic Prophet Mohammed would today be considered a paedophile for raping a 9-year old.

Regardless of my view on Winter's claim, it is a grave violation of human rights for freedom of expression to ban constructive religious criticism.

I hereby demand an appeal against the presiding court in Graz to demonstrate that the freedom of speech has still value in the 21st century.

Sincerely, the Undersigned.
