Mr. Freitag has now tasted the limits on freedom of speech. The man who has become notorious as a Corona-sceptic in Luxembourg was issued a monetary fine of 2.500 euro.

He has been fined for accusing Dr. Jean-Marc Cloos, a psychiatrist, as well as Dr. Alix Schmit, a retired gynaecologist as “Corona-Nazis” and calling them “Dr. Mengele disciples” (a German SS physician who conducted inhumane medical experiments on prisoners at Auschwitz).

Both doctors filed a defamation lawsuit, which was met with the aforementioned monetary fine.

Mr Freitag must also pay a compensation to the Doctors in the amount of 1.000 euro each.

He now also has to cover procedure costs of 750 euro.
