Section 185 of the German Criminal Code INSULT LAW
Law states: "An insult shall be punished with imprisonment for a term not exceeding one year or a fine and, if the insult is committed publicly, in a meeting, by disseminating content (Section 11(3)), or by means of an assault, with imprisonment for a term not exceeding two years or a fine."
This means that insulting someone—whether through words, gestures, or other actions that express disrespect or contempt—can lead to criminal penalties. The severity of the punishment increases if the insult occurs in a public setting, such as in front of others, through media, or involves physical action. The law doesn’t explicitly define what constitutes an "insult," leaving interpretation to the courts, which typically consider it an intentional attack on someone’s honor or dignity, evaluated in context.
