She subsequently worked as assistant to the Vice Chancellor of the Republic of Austria, Mr. Wolfgang Schüssel (1995-1997), at the Austrian Embassy Kuwait, Visa Section (1997-2000) and the Austrian Embassy Tripoli, Libya (2000-2001).

"Hate speech" conviction

In 2017 Sabaditsch-Wolff was charged with denigrating religious teachings ("hate speech") after she termed the prophet Muhammad a paedophile. The Austrian courts convicted her and sentenced her to jail and a fine,[3] after determining that she "was making value judgments partly based on untrue facts and without regard to the historical context.”[4]
