Justice: Appeal trial against Maja T.: Prosecution demands longer sentence

The appeal trial of Maja T., a non-binary person from Jena, has begun in Budapest. Maja T. was sentenced to 8 years in prison in February for violent attacks on alleged right-wing extremists in Hungary. The prosecution is seeking a harsher sentence, while the defence is calling for acquittal. The case is linked to violent activities of a German Antifa group, and a verdict is expected on September 30.
