German Court Calls Judge as Witness in Assistance Trial for Diamond Heist
January 17, 2024 – In an ongoing trial related to one of Saxony’s largest diamond heists, a judge was summoned as a witness against the main perpetrators. Despite the proceedings, the accused remains silent.
“Because the convicted main perpetrators are exercising their right to remain silent, the Dresden Regional Court summoned a judge from the chamber on Wednesday who had previously sentenced five members of the Remmo clan in May 2023.”
One of the accused in the trial is the brother of one of the perpetrators. He was a minor at the time of the crime.
