Prosecutors also said Laszlo had “kicked toward a man carrying a child in his hands, but the kick did not reach the man”, in one of the accusations she had faced during last year’s online uproar.
“The man carrying the child still fell, because… one of the policemen tried to catch and restrain him, and he lost his balance as he broke free.”
