Prison?

Géza Buzás-Hábel, a Roma gay and human right defender, who organized the Pécs Pride 2025 in Hungary, faces criminal charges for planning a peaceful march for LGBTI+ rights. The Pride in Pécs took place on October 4th despite a ban issued under Hungary’s “anti-Pride” law. He faces up to a year in prison.

He teaches Romani language and culture and trains future teachers. He has been organizing Pécs Pride – the only pride march in Hungary outside Budapest – for a long time.

Bad, but not surprising.
