Overview
- A Mallorca investigative judge has again ordered that the criminal probe by Collien Fernandes into her ex‑husband Christian Ulmen be sent to Germany and denied Fernandes’s latest objection.
- Fernandes first filed the complaint on December 2, 2025, accusing Ulmen of identity impersonation, sharing pornographic material under her name, breach of secrets, repeated mistreatment and serious threats.
- The court said it lacked Spanish jurisdiction because both parties are German citizens, key documents and evidence are in German and the alleged acts happened on German territory or were spread on German‑language platforms.
- German prosecutors in Potsdam are already conducting parallel inquiries into several suspected bodily‑harm incidents dated to 2022–2023, so substantive investigations may continue in Germany regardless of the Spanish process.
- Fernandes’s legal team has appealed to higher Spanish courts arguing narrow Spanish rules can allow extraterritorial jurisdiction for gender‑based violence, so the jurisdictional fight is likely to continue and will shape where digital and physical allegations are examined.
