A 22-year-old woman is now on trial

More than five years after the murder of a young man on Amrum, the Flensburg district court has been dealing with the case again since Monday. In a non-public trial, a 22-year-old German woman has to answer for being an accessory to manslaughter.

The brother of the accused and her partner at the time were already convicted of murdering the Iraqi in a separate trial in 2018. Since the accused was not of legal age at the time of the alleged crime, the hearing before the Large Youth Chamber is not open to the public at all times.

Although her brother and then-boyfriend have been convicted of murder, prosecutors have charged the young woman with aiding and abetting manslaughter, a court spokesman said. This is because, from a legal point of view, there is only accessory to murder if the accused person already has concrete ideas about the type of commission of the crime.

According to the public prosecutor, on the day of the crime in April 2017, the then friend of the accused had confronted them with pictures that would have shown them and the later victim in a “familiar situation”, as the court announced in advance. The defendant said that she had been raped. That's what the man believed.

He asked the accused whether she could live with him killing the Iraqi. She is said to have agreed. The public prosecutor assumes that the German national would have refrained from his plan to kill the fugitive if the accused had not consented.

In the trial against the two young men in May 2018, the chamber responsible at the time came to the conclusion that they had assumed that the later victim had raped the current accused in the past. According to the information at the time, no clarification was required as to whether this assumption was correct.

The chamber had assumed in favor of the two men that they were actually convinced of this. The two men lured the refugee from Iraq into the dunes of the North Sea island in April 2017 with the intention of killing him and killed him there. They then buried the body two meters deep in the sand. She wasn't found until months later.
