He claimed that the witnesses were paid, kept interrupting – and whined about how badly he was doing!
Seriel offender Tarek T. (45, allegedly a former police officer) sat in the dock at the district court in Bautzen on Tuesday. Opposite him: Badass judge Dr. Dirk Hertle (60).
When prosecutor Jens-Hagen Josinger (58) read out the nine charges (multiple bodily harm, insults, dangerous interference with traffic, robbery), the Libyan interrupted. Hertle clearly rebuked him.
Even before the first testimony, the accused then says: There are “people who are paid here to testify”. But he himself could hardly remember anything. He called the alleged victims by their first names. Then the accused said, “I don’t understand anything!”
Dr. Hertle responded, “You’ll understand in a minute!”
He made it clear to the Libyan that there would be no parole and spoke of the fact that he could impose up to four years’ imprisonment.
But the seriel offender does not rest. “You want something, I want something – Allah decides in the end,” he says to the judge. Who replies, “We’ll leave Allah out of it, here I decide!”
The trial is continued.
