High-Security Trial Begins for Former RAF Member Daniela Klette
Klette denies charges of armed robbery, attempted murder, and weapons possession, as her defense claims the trial is politically motivated.
- The trial of Daniela Klette, accused of 13 armed robberies and attempted murder between 1999 and 2016, has started in a high-security courtroom in Celle.
- Prosecutors allege Klette and her fugitive accomplices, Ernst-Volker Staub and Burkhard Garweg, stole over €2.7 million to fund their lives in hiding.
- Defense attorneys argue the trial is politically charged and influenced by Klette's alleged ties to the disbanded RAF, with claims of public prejudice and unfair treatment.
- Heightened security measures, including armed guards and a glass enclosure for Klette, reflect the sensitivity surrounding her case and its historical context.
- Public protests by Klette’s supporters, who describe her as a political prisoner, continue outside the courtroom as the trial is expected to extend into 2026.
