Polizeiruf 110: Ablass Puts Confessions on Trial as Munich Cold Case Resurfaces

The Munich case uses clashing confessions to probe how status and bias shape justice.

Overview

  • ARD will broadcast the new installment on Sunday, March 15, 2026, at 20:15.
  • A body recovered from an Isar weir is identified as 19-year-old Sonja Behrling, raising doubts about a prior conviction secured after Leon Kamara’s confession.
  • In a separate fatal hit-and-run, fingerprints lead to Viktor Reisinger, who agrees to a plea-backed confession that later conflicts with surveillance footage.
  • A single defense attorney, August Schellenberg (played by Tobias Moretti), emerges as a link across both investigations.
  • This is the fifth Munich case for Johanna Wokalek and Stephan Zinner, written and directed by Christian Bach, with a sixth episode already filmed.
