Annex 132_F2 — The incomplete version of the statement of the Prosecutor General’s Office (Generalstaatsanwaltschaft)
On 17.06.2026, in proceedings 589 StVK 86/26, I received three sheets printed on one side: a covering letter from Berlin Regional Court I (Landgericht Berlin I) of 15.06.2026 and two pages from a letter of the Berlin Prosecutor General’s Office (Generalstaatsanwaltschaft Berlin). In it, the Prosecutor General’s Office requests refusal of suspension of the remainder of the sentence and expressly refers to a prison (JVA) statement of 07.05.2026 — which had not been sent to me.
The first page of the prosecution’s reasons was followed immediately by its final page. The intervening second page was missing. Sentence execution reports, expert reports, file notes and the other bases for the negative prognosis were also missing. There was no decision on my application to admit representatives of the press to the hearing.
On 18.06.2026, I raised these objections with the Regional Court and documented in a declaration in lieu of oath (eidesstattlich) that only three sheets had been handed to me. A hearing without prior full knowledge of the adverse documents cannot be a hearing consistent with the rule of law.

Position in the chain. I received the missing second page only on 14.07.2026, twenty days after the decision: Annex 148_F2. The prison statement referred to in it, which was withheld from me, is Annex 138_F2.
