BREAKING: Christian Finnish parliamentarian Päivi Räsänen, who was criminally convicted for “hate speech” by her country’s Supreme Court for a church booklet she wrote decades ago, has today announced that she will appeal her case to the European Court of Human Rights.
After nearly seven years of criminal prosecution for peaceful expression, the battle of Päivi and Lutheran Bishop Juhana Pohjola, who was also convicted in March for publishing the booklet, for free speech continues.
This is a critical case for free speech across Europe.
We are proud to stand alongside Päivi and Bishop Pohjola in their fight for free speech and will represent them in this landmark case before the ECtHR.
