[b]Police hunt farting
dissident
Police in Poland have launched a nationwide hunt for a man who
farted loudly when asked what he thought of the president.
Hubert Hoffman, 45, was charged with "contempt for the office of
the head of state" for his actions after he was stopped by police
in a routine check at a Warsaw railway station.
He complained that under President Lech Kaczynski and his twin
brother Jaroslaw, the country was returning to a Communist style
dictatorship.
When told to show more respect for the country's rulers, he farted
loudly and was promptly arrested.
Hoffmann was arrested and released on bail but failed to turn up at
a Warsaw court early this week to be tried, and the judge in the
case rejected an appeal by defence lawyers to throw the charges
out.
A court spokesman said: "Such a case of disrespect is taken very
seriously."
Instead the court ordered the police to start a nationwide hunt for
the man, and interpol have been alerted.
