German man locked up over HVB bank allegations
may have been telling truth Gustl Mollath was put in a psychiatric unit for claiming his wife was involved in money-laundering at the Bavarian bank. But seven years on evidence has emerged that could set him free. The "Mollath affair", as it has been dubbed by the German media, has taken on such political dimensions that it now threatens to bring down the government of Bavaria. Under the weight of public and political pressure Horst Seehofer, the prime minister of the rich southern state – has now called for the case to be reopened, amid charges that Mollath was possibly the victim of a gross miscarriage of justice. |
