UK newspaper the Mail on Sunday has defied a German court injunction by republishing an article about German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder. This is not the only time Schroeder has sued to halt newspaper reports: a court will rule at the end of January on a challenge by two newspapers which were banned from publishing articles about his sleeping arrangements.

Days after Mr Schroeder obtained an injunction from a German court
against its owners, the newspaper published for a second time claims
about the chancellor’s alleged relationship with a German television
presenter.

The newspaper said the injunction only applied if it repeated the
story in Germany, adding that “for now, at least, we can ignore this
blustering and these threats”.

On Friday a court in Hamburg ruled that the paper’s owners,
Associated
Newspapers, could not repeat details of an article published earlier
this month in which the married Chancellor was linked to the
well-known presenter.
