A Hessian gold dealer is said to have cheated many customers with a pyramid scheme. But an important witness now refuses to testify in court.
In the trial against two former executives of the insolvent gold dealer PIM from southern Hesse, the witness, who started the whole process with his complaint, refused to testify.
“There are several criminal investigations pending against him,” quoted attorney Marcus Traut from the grounds of the 62-year-old. The appearance of the witness before the Darmstadt district court lasted less than five minutes on Thursday. He’s filing a criminal complaint and now won’t say another word, criticized Traut. “That is significant. That should give the Chamber and the aldermen something to think about. “
