German Defense Minister Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg accused of plagiarism

From DW World: A Bremen law professor has accused Defense Minister Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg of "brazen plagiarism" and "deceit" in several passages of his 2006 doctoral thesis.

According to Andreas Fischer-Lescano's comments in Wednesday's Süddeutsche Zeitung newspaper, passages of Guttenberg's paper were almost identical to previously published texts by other authors. He has accused Guttenberg of using the information without citing the original authors.
