Czech police investigate posting of controversial Dutch film

Czech police say they have begun investigating the posting of a controversial anti-Islamic film on a Czech website. The 15-minute film by ultra right-wing Dutch parliamentarian Geert Wilders was posted on a Czech website by the extreme right National Party. The film, launched on Thursday, has stirred substantial controversy leading to protests in the Netherlands and elsewhere. Czech police are investigating to see whether the posting of the incendiary material on a Czech website is in keeping with the law. The extremist National Party is not a member of the country's Parliament; the posting of the Dutch film by its members is being seen largely as a publicity stunt.
