 Germany/Judicial system    | |
|---|---|
See also Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution
The judiciary of Germany is the system of courts that interprets and applies the law in Germany.
Official narrative
In Germany, the independence of the judiciary is historically older than democracy. The organisation of courts is traditionally strong, and almost all federal and state actions are subject to judicial review.
Persecutions
The system is widely used to hand out punishment to political dissidents, sometimes by using lots of resources on prosecution of minor charges. The persecution is often done in collaboration with the intelligence services and campaigns in German corporate and state media.
- CJ Hopkins is an American playwright, novelist and political satirist based in Berlin. A prominent Covid dissident, in 2023 he was persecuted by the German judicial system on trumped-up charges.
- In September 2023, a 26-year-old computer science student from Munich was fined 1,500 euros for referring to Germany as a "shit state" in a post out of anger that he was not allowed to visit his grandmother to celebrate her birthday with her during the corona lockdowns. In addition to the 1,500 euros, the young man must also pay the procedural and legal fees. The student received a summons from the police three quarters of a year after his tweet due to the complaint of an anonymous denunciation.[1]
- Michael Ballweg, who since 2020 arranged organized some highly successful protests against Covid, was in June 2022 arrested on bogus charges of fraud, put in a high-security prison for 9 months, before being released without any charges. His entire fortune was still confiscated.
- At the end of 2021, the blogger and computer scientist Hadmut Danisch had argued in an article about the Green politician Ricarda Lang that the physical size of the politician should also be the subject of political debate, writing that "she was fat." A complaint against him came from a website sponsored by the Bavarian government, after Lang had been elected chairman of her party in January 2022, where the Berlin Public Prosecutor's office then applied for a criminal order for "insulting public figures" under section 188 of the Criminal Code. The court, after a year, discontinued the proceedings. During the investigation against him, Danisch also received the news that Deutsche Bank had terminated his donation account without giving any reasons[2] Both the denunciation website and the behind-the-scenes dealing with his bank indicate the participation of the internal intelligence service.[3]
