A former leader of the Swiss National Orientated Party (PNOS) is on trial for racial discrimination, with prosecutors seeking a 15-month prison sentence. The 49-year-old, who has been linked to antisemitic activities, allegedly attempted to publish a racist article in a local newspaper and later shared similar content on a Telegram channel. The court will announce its decision soon, as the defendant maintains his innocence despite previous convictions for racial discrimination. The trial is being closely monitored by the Swiss Jewish community, which seeks a strong legal response against hate speech.
