Court ordered association Obraz to apologize to Albert for statements about chicken farming

The association Obránci zvířat (Obraz) must apologize to the retail chain Albert for certain statements made during a campaign that highlighted allegedly poor conditions in chicken farming. This decision was made on Monday by the Municipal Court in Prague, although it is not yet final. The association must apologize for claims such as chickens being deformed, burned, suffocating, and sick, and that Albert profits from enormous suffering. They must also remove these statements from the campaign videos, flyers, posters, and their website. The company Rabbit Trhový Štěpánov also filed a lawsuit against the association along with Albert, but the court dismissed that part of the lawsuit.
