Rath loses second lawsuit against Reflex

The Governor of the region of Central Bohemia, David Rath, has lost the second round of a lawsuit against the weekly magazine Reflex. Mr Rath was seeking an apology from the publishing company Ringier for ethics violations and defamation over a cover-page caricature that depicted him as a cross between Adolf Hitler and Charlie Chaplin. After the ruling, Mr Rath indicated he would be taking his case to the Supreme and possibly European courts.
