The Green Party Secretary General and National Council member Olga Voglauer will not be "extradited" by the National Council.
At the end of the plenary session on Wednesday, there was no approval for the official prosecution of Voglauer requested by the Klagenfurt Regional Court on the grounds of defamation. With the exception of the FPÖ, all parties were of the opinion that Voglauer's comment was made within the scope of her parliamentary duties.
The reason for the Klagenfurt Regional Court's request for Voglauer's "extradition" was a private lawsuit for defamation by the right-wing extremist Martin Sellner, whom she had accused of displaying the Hitler salute.
