Overview
- The Dresden public prosecutor’s office confirmed it is examining a criminal complaint against presiding judge Herbert Pröls over alleged instigation of a breach of confidentiality.
- Prosecutors are also reviewing a separate complaint against defense attorney Andrej Klein after reports he transferred €117,000 from the accused’s account while she was in custody despite an alleged seizure order.
- An expert’s assessment presented in court found a will discovered in Peter B.’s law office to be very likely authentic and to provide Ramona B. only an amount covering the compulsory share rather than sole inheritance.
- A key witness from the victim’s law firm retracted earlier police statements implicating co-defendant Claus T., telling the court she does not know him and never saw him at the office.
- The court declined to release Claus T. from custody, with the court spokesman stating that urgent suspicion has intensified toward co-perpetration based on the evidence so far.
