(SH/STH) Two men in Luxembourg had
to learn the hard way that the law also applies in the online world.
Due to xenophobic commentaries on Facebook, they were sentenced by a
Luxembourg court.
However, both sentences
were less severe than what the public prosecutor asked for and than
the maximum sentence of two years imprisonment for incitement to
hatred.
