German court bans parts of Erdogan poem


German comedian Jan Boehmermann has been banned from repeating parts of his satirical poem about Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Judges in Hamburg ruled that references to bestiality and child pornography were "abusive and libellous". The case was brought by Erdogan's lawyers. Boehmermann also faces criminal charges over the poem.
