Processes - Fatal shooting on Nuremberg street: defendant remains silent
A 29-year-old man accused of the fatal shooting on a busy Nuremberg street did not comment on the charges at the start of the trial. One of the defense lawyers told the district court on Wednesday that his client was not making any statements at the moment. The public prosecutor's office is accusing the Turkish man of murder and attempted murder, among other things.
He is said to have shot at two friends outside a café last October. He hit a 30-year-old man in the chest. The latter later died in hospital. A 35-year-old survived seriously injured. Before the crime, there is said to have been an argument between the accused and the two victims. The reasons for this are unknown, said the public prosecutor.
After the crime, the suspect went into hiding. Around three months later, a special task force was able to arrest him in a hotel room in Rimini, Italy. He has been in custody in Germany since mid-February.
In the trial, the chamber wants to clarify not only the exact sequence of events, but also the background to the crime. Numerous trial days are planned until March for the taking of evidence. The public prosecutor has called more than 100 witnesses and seven expert witnesses.
