Zurich convicts ATC for self reporting mistake
The Zurich High Court, convicted and fined an Air Traffic Controller for self-reporting a pretty serious 'near-miss' - one which the subsequent investigation report had given "no grounds" for the taking of any disciplinary action against the air traffic controller.

Does this mean the court will claim, with this ruling, they enhanced aviation safety because the number of self-reported errors are way down from the previous year?
Think anyone else will self report. What a travesty.
They are creating a system where no one will self disclose and try to cover things up.. Bad system, Their system is not working. This reminds me of "Gol Transportes Aéreos Flight 1907" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gol_Transportes_A%C3%A9reos_Flight_1907
Charges were filed against the controller and the Legacy crew - Sounds very similar situation. I guess they will never learn.

This is definitely one for the "WTF?" file
Correct. Forget about “self reporting.” That would only confuse the safety system. The self risk of self reporting is certainly not going to improve safety
OT
yes, i am aware there is a difference between planes and trains. one needs wings, the other rails. but i get the two mixed up.
perhaps.
just perhaps, the court is applying extensive legal precedent in transportation. and europe's extensive railroad history provides the background. a case study would include the incident outside lathen germany.
this is how europe deals with accidents:

and i just can't resist:
instances where we have a "near-miss".
