He tied his 32-year-old girlfriend from the Rhineland-Palatinate in his house in Alt Rehse naked to a bed and whipped. In the spring of 2016, the woman in his house, and 54 died-Year-old was then to five years in prison for false imprisonment and personal injury or death sentenced. Now it came to a revision process - and ended with a significantly lower penalty. The district court of Neubrandenburg said the 54-Year-old on Friday of assault and the attempted coercion of guilty. The chamber imposed a fine of 90 daily rates of 15 euros.

The Convicts have beaten the woman at the time, with "a whip-like object", but the exact cause of death was determined, said judge Henning Kolf on Friday in the grounds of judgment. The entire revision process had been held since February 2019 behind closed doors.

With the ruling, the chamber remained well below the demand of the public Prosecutor's office, which had requested more than four years in prison for bodily injury resulting in death. In 2017, the defendant was convicted in the first trial to five years in prison. According to the court, at that time, the man in June 2016 after a dispute had naked his 32-year-old partner tied to the bed, with a whip, tortured and as long as no food or Drink is given that she died.

Against the judgment at the time his lawyer's appeal was lodged. The Federal court annulled the verdict and ordered a retrial, among other things, the debt capacity of the Condemned to more accurately should be considered.

The Convict and the 32-Year-old had met in 2015 over the Internet, and she was pulled from the Rhineland-Palatinate to his Alt Rehse. "At the time, the man was already in a life crisis," said the judge. He had professional problems, have turned away from the village community and of him. His wife had left him.

The man had become in the early summer of 2016, and then to the new partner, always suspicious, said Kolf. After all, he had been subjected to an "interrogation", because you have hidden items, and "from the BND and of the village population, it was recognized." He had beaten the young woman with a self-made whip. Both should also have used drugs. In the result, the woman died. The man had two attempts at resuscitation, but had brought no medical help.

The body had been found wrapped in police officer only weeks later, in early August randomly - in fabric and foil and on a Dolly tied - in of the Ex-restaurant. Due to the decay state coroner could not determine an exact cause of death, and more. In the tissue of the Injured but slight traces of drugs were found.

The Convict had reported Details of the incidents of the day after the discovery to the police. The officers had been called because of a disturbance of the peace, as the guy played early in the morning on a wind Instrument. Later in the revision process, he had to call in the first place and then in the process of "slicing and dicing yet again admitted," the judge explained.

A psychiatric expert told the 54-Year-old with a slight personality disorder attested. He is prone to Exaggeration, but it is not a psychosis is present, such as Kolf said. Thus, the chamber had adopted again-a "diminished capacity". For a part of the pre-trial detention of more than two years, the Convicted person should receive compensation.

the judgment of The district court is not yet final. Observers expect that, this time, the prosecution will Lodge an appeal within a week.
