Sociologist Remains Free. Federal Prosecution postpones decision to revoke temporary release
Yesterday afternoon the Third Criminal Division of the Federal Court of
Justice declared that the decision over the appeal against Andrej H.‘s
temporary release from custody has been postponed until October.
According to the judge there are outstanding legal questions as to
whether the anti-terrorist legislation, the “§129a”, can even be applied
to this case at all. The lawyers acting on behalf of Florian L., Oliver
R. and Axel H. believe that this discussion over the premises of the
charges will also have an effect on their clients’ situation.
“The Federal Prosecution is completely lost over its construction of a
terrorist organisation”, Volker Eick, a spokesperson for the Coalition
for the Immediate End to the 129a Proceedings, said. “The accusation of
terrorism against the three people arrested in Brandenburg is based upon
two meetings with Andrej H. Whatever is decided, we demand the immediate
release of Oliver, Florian and Axel”, Eick added.
For Andrej H. the judge’s decision means he will remain out of custody
until the beginning of October. “We are of the opinion that this will
continue to be the case because by October the claim that he may abscond
will be have been clearly shown to be false”, Eick stated.
