Joodse organisatie stelt advocaat Sven Mary aan in zaak tegen Herman Brusselmans.

European Jewish Association (EJA) is preparing a criminal complaint against Humo and writer Herman Brusselmans. The organization accuses Brusselmans of incitement to murder and a hate crime. Media group DPG Media is also targeted. EJA has enlisted the services of lawyer Sven Mary. The controversial column by Brusselmans has sparked outrage, with his statement about wanting to stab every Jew he encounters. EJA has announced that they will be taking legal action against Brusselmans and the media group, including the owners, board members, and editor-in-chief. The organization is exploring their legal options and plans to file a formal complaint next week. Notably, they have chosen Sven Mary, known for his experience with anti-racism legislation, to represent them. Unia, the equality institute, has also announced their intention to file a complaint against Humo and Brusselmans. Humo has defended the column, stating that it is satirical and not meant to be taken literally.
