Hungarian police shut down anti-government news portal
Budapest police have suspended the news portal hirhatter.com. It is edited by journalist Arpad Molnar F., whose stated aim is to “expose state corruption”. The authorities claim that Molnar F. had committed the criminal offence of “displaying banned symbols of tyranny”. Accordingly, the police compelled the web operator to close the portal.
