A bearded neo-Nazi thrown behind bars in Germany for inciting hatred has legally changed his name and gender in an apparent bid to be transferred to a women’s prison — because he’s afraid of “discrimination.”
Sven Liebich, 53, is serving an 18-month sentence in a men’s jail in Saxony after being convicted last year on a handful of hatred and defamation charges, local outlet Mitteldeutsche Zeitung reported.
But the right-wing extremist, who is in the process of appealing the sentence, recently opted to change identity and now goes by Marla-Svenja Liebich.
“I am afraid of discrimination,” the convicted felon said in a statement.
Despite the stunning twist in the case, the outlet noted that Liebich hasn’t changed appearance since the gender shift — and now even has a longer beard.
