Geert Wilders trial for inciting hatred to start on March 18

Society December 18, 2015

The trial of PVV leader Geert Wilders on charges of inciting racism and hatred will start on March 18 with a procedural hearing, The Hague’s district court said on Friday.

The hearing will focus on the investigation into the charges against Wilders and set dates for witness appearances and the rest of the trial.

Wilders faces prosecution for his comments about Moroccan nationals on March 12 and 19, 2015, during and after the local election campaign.

In March, Wilders told supporters in Loosduinen that he would rather there were ‘fewer Moroccans’ in The Hague.

Seven days later, during a post vote meeting with supporters, Wilders asked the crowd ‘and do you want more or fewer Moroccans in your city and in the Netherlands?’ To which the crowd chanted ‘fewer, fewer, fewer’. ‘We’ll arrange that,’ Wilders said, smiling, when the chanting died down.

The comments led to over 6,400 complaints to the police and a slew of resignations from the PVV.

Offence

The public prosecution department says that while it considers Wilders has insulted people on racial grounds and encouraged discrimination and hatred, this does not mean he has committed a criminal offence.

  1. Ahh, the kangaroo court.

    Fortunately ,we had the honour of Geert Wilders visiting Australia recently. He is a hero.

  2. I’m just disappointed that the beautiful Australian Kangaroo – an icon in my country – continues to be
    associated with corrupt judicial process.
