Petra Laszlo, who seemed in a Szeged District Court by remote video from an undisclosed location, mounted a weeping invulnerability and pronounced she would appeal.

Judge Illes Nanasi yesterday pronounced Laszlo’s function “ran opposite to governmental norms” and pronounced a contribution of a box did not support Laszlo’s self-defense claim.

The occurrence occurred nearby a limit city of Roszke on Sept 8, 2015, where Laszlo had left to film migrants from a Middle East who were perplexing to pass by Hungary on their approach west. While she was filming, several migrants pennyless by a military thong and jostled her as they shot by.

Laszlo responded by delivering a roundhouse-style flog to dual people as they fled, including a immature girl. Later, she seemed to outing a migrant carrying a child.

Her employer, a internet-based N1 TV, dismissed her after a incident, she said.
