Berlin Court Rejects Malta Gaming Regulator’s Bid Against Researcher

A Berlin court ruled against the Malta Gaming Authority in a dispute over German researcher Lilith Wittmann’s statements linking the regulator to organized crime, according to Wittmann’s account reported by Bitcoin.com News.

Wittmann said the regulator had sought to prevent her from making those claims. The reported ruling concerns that effort and does not establish whether the underlying allegations are true.

According to Wittmann, the decision also allows her to continue using documents taken from the authority’s systems, while barring her from accessing those systems again. The source headline also reported that the leak site had gone offline, but the supplied excerpt gave no further details.
