According to information from stern there is an explosive recording that could burden the musician Bushido in his trial, now also before the court. The sound document could not only be a turning point in the spectacular process.
A sound file refutes Bushido’s statements in the trial of his former friend Arafat Abou-Chaker. He reports that stern exclusively in its latest edition. The unveiling of stern could burst the symbolic process in the fight against clan crime. To sternThe explosive recording is now also available to the court for information. The public prosecutor’s office and the lawyers of Ferchichi and the Abou Chaker brothers have been informed. The judge has already informed the litigants that he will have the audio file examined by a court-appointed expert.
The sound document could not only be a turning point in the spectacular process, but also in the life of Anis Ferchichi and his wife Anna-Maria. Possibly it unmasks the statements of the spouses as false statements. Both were not sworn in, but even a false unsworn testimony in court can be punished with up to five years imprisonment under Section 153 of the Criminal Code.
Bushido sticks to his presentation
Am Bushido announced Thursday via Instagram, he stays after the stern-Publication in his account of events. He also wonders why the tape is only appearing now, a year and a half after the trial began. The timing could prove significant for the Ferchichis, because false testimony in court is only considered complete when the testimony has been completed and the witness has been dismissed. Statements can be corrected beforehand without penalty, but no longer afterwards. Only when the court formally establishes the end of the testimony is the crime deemed to have been committed and can be prosecuted.
Anis Ferchichi sat in the witness chair for a total of 25 days of the trial. After him, his wife Anna-Maria testified for at least five days. On January 5, she was released as a witness. Since then, the statements of both spouses have been formally completed. If they have lied in court, it is considered a criminal offence.
