Katerina Janouch wrote a blog post in March 2020 about a task given to the students in year three at a school in Tierp.
A parent had contacted Janouch about how the school children were forced write texts from a Muslim perspective and, among other things, had to describe how they pray to Allah and visit the mosque.
“9-year-olds are forced to confess to Islam in writing”, read the title of Katerina Janouch's post, where the school and the teacher was named.
– I myself am so angry that I boil. How can you do this? We are Christians and my children should not be forced to be Islamized in school education, said the mother of one of the children that Janouch wrote about.
The district court believes that Katerina Janouch – who has a large number of followers on social media – by publishing the teacher's name is guilty of gross defamation. She is sentenced to a suspended sentence and 50 daily fines of SEK 150. She must also pay damages of SEK 50,000 to the teacher.
On Twitter, Janouch comments on the verdict and announces that it will be appealed.
“Of course I was convicted in the Uppsala PK Court, by grumpy batik witch who has no problem with Islamization and humiliation of small children. 50,000 in “damages” the teacher wants. Appeal to the Court of Appeal of course!” she writes and continues:
“I expected to be convicted because the judiciary is a wreck and we already have sharia laws where it is forbidden to criticize Islam and its apologists.”
