More than a year after the riots on the radical left-wing "Day X" in Leipzig, the regional court has dismissed numerous charges brought by the public prosecutor against a 25-year-old. A court spokesperson explained the decision, stating that, in the opinion of the chamber, it was not possible to sufficiently identify a suspected perpetrator from the images presented. The person had been wearing a mask and had moved quickly.
The public prosecutor's office had filed charges against the 25-year-old at the end of May, including two counts of attempted murder and 18 counts of grievous bodily harm. Only the charge of breach of the peace could be heard, explained the regional court spokesperson. However, the district court has jurisdiction here. The "Leipziger Volkszeitung" had previously reported.
