János, our party member was arrested early today for a critical Facebook post. The basis was Orbán’s #COVID law threatening prisontime for those who spread misinformation. His IT devices were taken. He was released, but wasn’t even offered transportation although he is disabled.
Please tell his story to everyone who says this law is a proportional pandemic response. Who says we’re alarmists to share our worries that the law can be abused. This man shared a link about a horn-honking protest with a single sentence comment - and police showed up at his door
His comment was "also in Gyula [his hometown in Southern HU] 1170 hospital beds were emptied." ("Gyulán is kiürítettek 1170 ágyat.”) Gov documents corroborate this number. He refers to the inhumane policy of preemptively freeing hospital beds I wrote about https://twitter.com/katka_cseh/status/1251057540076625920
