誤解の可能性あり。Plead Guilty は「抗弁」の意味だが、「弁解」、「申し開き」の意味もある。
英語の独特の表現なので、「オーストリアの刑法では有罪だが、申し開きをする」という意味を、誤解しているのではないだろうか。
以下が、英文記事である。

David Irving to Plead Guilty
The Telegraph
David Irving, the British revisionist historian, revealed last night that he would plead guilty to charges of Holocaust denial when he appeared in a Vienna court next week. Mr Irving, 67, who has been held in an Austrian prison since last November, said he did not consider himself to be a Holocaust denier but had no choice but plead "guilty as charged". "Under the law I've got no alternative," he told the television channel More4 News. But he added: "I deny that I'm a Holocaust denier. This is a filthy smear." The charges date back to 1989, when the Right-wing author of books such as Hitler's War gave speeches in Vienna and Leoben in which he disputed the existence of the gas chambers in Nazi concentration camps.
