New details have come to light regarding the event that took place in Dortmund, where an Albanian supervisor who was in the camp that was the National Team, allegedly raped an employee. As the public prosecutor's office confirmed on Monday July 8 , the Albanian accused left the country on June 24, a day after the police authority of Unna district took the incident into consideration. According to information from Hellweger Anzeiger, the Albanian team left the center of Kaiseraut only on June Prosecutor Sonja Frodermann admits that she does not know about the details of the departure.
But why in their eyes was there no urgent doubt about the person from Albania? Sonja Frodermann explains the circumstances as follows: "A strong suspicion only arises if the evidence for a conviction is very clear," she explained. In Germany something like this is important for the judiciary, because a strong suspicion of a criminal offense is often the basic prerequisite for whether or not to issue an arrest warrant or whether or not a judge orders detention.
Even if this happens, the presumption of innocence applies until a final conviction is obtained. Vordermann formulates the issue of suspicion of a criminal offense in very legal terms: "There is no suspicion of a criminal offense because it is still unclear whether the accused subjectively understood the lack of will desire on the part of the injured party", says the public prosecutor.
Specifically: It has not been clarified whether the accused understood that he was acting against the woman's will or not. Not having an urgent reasonable suspicion also means a reduced probability to convict the person", says Sonja Frodermann. This means that the public prosecution estimates that the chances of charging the person and convicting him are relatively low. Your email address will not be made public.
