He was charged under the act on publications corrupting youth, which could usefully be applied in other areas, and under the legislative act brought in by the French Communist Gayssot according to which, for example, the Germans must still be held responsible for the massacre of thousands of Polish officers at Katyn, even though the Soviets have admitted to this.
On a invoqué contre lui tantôt la loi sur les publications corrompant la jeunesse, qui pourrait trouver d'autres champs d'application, tantôt la loi du communiste français Gayssot, qui oblige, par exemple, à continuer de charger les Allemands du massacre de milliers d'officiers polonais à Katyn, pourtant avoué par les Soviétiques.
