Jailed for insult.
Here.
A 61 year-old German man in Duesseldorf, Germany, was convicted for insulting Islam. He printed the word "Koran" on toilet paper and offered it to mosques, claiming the Koran is a 'cookbook for terrorists'. He was sentenced to a year in prison. The maximum sentence in Germany for insulting religious beliefs under the German penalty code is three years.
Germany doesn't joke around with this sort of stuff. It's actually illegal to own a copy of Hitler's famed, "Mein Kampf", as a resident, which should make D.W. Eifert a happy man.
