UPDATE, 12th Sept. 2016:
Whatever the case is, there is an other case: that of a newspaper preying on victims. It is vulgar, it is brutal, it is neglecting personal rights of the victims, and it is misleading patients into more and deeper misery. We do not support any "newspaper" behaving in such a criminal way. URLs are herewith cut off. And will be cut off. We have a zero tolerance policy for that kind of parasitism.
