I find it interesting that a european country belonging to the EU which enacted Freedom of Information Acts to give its citizens access to information should allow not only restricting information but the use of threats of legal action to suppress the information once it is in the public domain. There is no issue of national security and this is clearly censorship. Whether the relevant authorities undertake an investigation or a proper investigation is a separate issue.
Ironically if this threat had not been made only a handful of people would have been aware of the probably trivial event. But now millions are aware and reputations are being trashed. Conspiracies will seen where in fact there is just bureaucratic stupidity.
