Mosley files a new lawsuit

2008-07-25 16:01

Berlin - FIA president Max Mosley has filed a lawsuit against the publisher of Germany's largest newspaper that is similar to the case he won over an English tabloid this week, contending that his sex acts with several prostitutes did not have a Nazi theme.

According to the lawsuit, Mosley is demanding $1.57m from Bild newspaper and $783 850 from its online edition in damages for their text, photo and video reports on Mosley's sadomasochistic encounter in March.

Mosley is president of the FIA, the motorsport world governing body. He is the son of the late Oswald Mosley, Britain's best-known fascist politician in the 1930s, who had Adolf Hitler as a guest at his wedding.

Admits encounter with sex workers

Mosley won a privacy-invasion lawsuit over the News of the World claim on Thursday that his sex games had a Nazi connotation, and High Court judge David Eady ruled that the tabloid must pay Mosley $120 000 in damages plus legal costs for the story.

The 68-year-old Mosley admits the encounter with sex workers, but says it was private and there were no Nazi overtones.

The prosecutor's office in Berlin opened an investigation based on Mosley's lawsuit, spokesperson Simone Herbeth said on Friday.

The lawsuit is over breach of trust, violations of copyright laws and fraud, claiming Axel Springer AG, publisher of Bild, had spent money for "illegal purposes" by paying for the video and photos of the orgy.
