Jenewein must pay 2,000 euros, Hafenecker 5,100 euros. Three co-defendants, including Hafenecker’s wife, were acquitted. The verdicts are not final.
Jenewein must pay 100 daily rates of 20 euros each for data falsification, and Hafenecker, as the perpetrator, must pay 30 daily rates of 170 euros each. Acquittals were made on some of the charges. The judge said he had “not the slightest doubt” that Hafenecker had instructed the parliamentary employee to order the fake test certificates from Jenewein. The other defendants were acquitted because it could not be proven that they had been the perpetrator.
Judgments not legally binding
The public prosecutor’s office made no statement. Jenewein’s defense attorney asked for time to think about it, and Hafenecker’s attorney filed an appeal. The verdicts are therefore not legally binding.
According to his defense attorney, Jenewein admitted to having forged Covid test certificates for himself and others. According to the public prosecutor’s office, the four co-defendants acted as designated perpetrators and denied the allegations. The accused did not attend the hearing on Tuesday. Defendants can be represented by defense attorneys in district court proceedings and do not have to appear in person.
