The man was arrested during the raid in December – and has since been in custody on suspicion of being a terrorist. Nothing should change about that, even in the face of a hunger strike.
A suspected member of the Reichsbürger scene who was on a hunger strike remains in custody. The Federal Court of Justice had rejected an application for a detention review, said the lawyer for the former Bundeswehr officer.
His client has been on a hunger strike since April 12 and has since been transferred to a hospital, defense attorney Ralf Dalla Fini told the German Press Agency on Tuesday, confirming media reports. He announced that he would take action against the decision.
The man from the Bavarian Forest was arrested during the Reichsbürger raid in December last year and has since been in custody on suspicion of being a terrorist. He is said to have previously belonged to the Special Forces Command (KSK) of the Bundeswehr. In the Reichsbürger scene around the aristocrat Heinrich Prince Reuss, who was also imprisoned, he is regarded as a leading member of the military arm.
