Buenos Aires, December 26 (NA) – Federal Judge Daniel Rafecas has sent Vanina Biasi, a legislator for the Left Front, to oral trial. She is charged with “incitement to violence and discriminatory acts” after posting a series of “anti-Semitic messages” on the social network X. To conduct the oral trial, Federal Judge Marcelo Martínez de Giorgi was selected, as confirmed by the Argentine News Agency. The decision by Judge Rafecas, confirmed by the Federal Chamber and the Chamber of Cassation, aims to prevent the spread of anti-Semitic hate speech that could incite attacks like those experienced by Argentina in 1992 and 1994, or more recently in Sydney. Just last week, Biasi had presented a project to condemn the anti-Semitic attack that occurred in the Australian capital. “Violence and religious, national, or ethnic hatred is unacceptable: it is an instrument of capitalist power, war, and imperialist business,” the leader stated on her social networks.
