DLina E., who was sentenced to five years and three months in prison, is released after two and a half years in custody. The arrest warrant against them will be suspended against conditions, said Hans Schlueter-Staats, presiding judge of the State Protection Chamber at the Dresden Higher Regional Court, on Wednesday evening at the end of the verdict. She only has to serve the remainder of the sentence if the verdict becomes final.
She now has to report to the police twice a week, can only change her place of residence noted in the file with the consent of the court and has to hand in her identity card after her passport.
The higher regional court had sentenced the alleged left-wing extremist Lina E. for several attacks on right-wing extremists. It allowed revision.
The decision to issue an arrest warrant was a pleasant surprise, especially for the mother of the 28-year-old, which culminated in frenetic applause and jeers from the supporters around her. “Five years, three months is for someone of her age and otherwise severe and serious,” Schlueter-Staats said in the introduction to the student from Kassel (Hesse). The “greatest burden of the process is the status they’ve achieved here,” he remarked personally.
