I refer to the report Far Right Movement Leader Fined For Contempt Of Court (June 10) about Norman Lowell's two court cases.

The report said that "In the first case, Mr Lowell and Kevin Ellul Bonici were charged over articles that appeared on the website Maltafly.com". That case goes back to October 2002 and it concerned only one article, Gol's Chutzpah, dealing with Israel's policies and actions against the Palestinian people.

The court case was initiated on the complaint of Lawrence Attard Bezzina, who claimed to be the injured party. This case is completely separate from the later charges against Mr Lowell over his Safi speech earlier this year.

At the time when I was involved with the said website along with others, Mr Lowell's article was uploaded in accordance with the principle of freedom of expression.
