Géza Buzás-Hábel, a teacher and long-time organiser of Pécs Pride was summoned for police questioning on 28 October after Hungary introduced a “child protection” law this April that bans or criminalises Pride events. Under the new rules, organisers can face up to one year in prison, and attendees risk fines of up to 500 euros. Police have also announced that they will use facial-recognition technology to identify participants. An investigation of Buzás-Hábel is currently underway. If convicted, he would not only face imprisonment but would also lose his right to teach. #LGBTQNews #LGBTQPride #Pride #Hungary #BudapestPride
