Wilders’ inciting hatred court case will go ahead, judges say

The court case against anti-Islam campaigner and MP Geert Wilders will go ahead as planned, the three judges hearing the case said on Wednesday.


Wilders’ legal team had tried to have the case dropped on a number of legal grounds.
But while agreeing the case, based on charges of inciting hatred and discrimination will continue, Wilders should not be charged with comparing Islam to fascism, the judges said.
