Surprisingly spread Tuesday ahead of Walter Meischberger, while Judge Marion Hohenecker announced that he would be interviewed today, Wednesday, as part of the telecommunications process as a defendant. . He had thought that the former secretary general of the Freedom Party would follow the interrogation of the first defendant, former Telekom CEO, Rudolf Fischer, and those of the second defendant, the former lobbyist Peter Hochegger. Bad thought, was the answer of the president. Wednesday afternoon, the 59-year-old had to sit on the witness stand, where he made a "consistent statement".
Meischberger stressed in his remarks: "My skills are neither learnable nor studyable, so they are a rare badet." But all this is ignored by the prosecutor, who has never questioned him – with the support of "relevant media", he criticized.
Their presentation of his activities "would have done a great honor to the notorious Al Capone," said Meischberger, to explain the difference between a "cold" and "hot" network in the Senate: the first is limited to the exchange of cards visiting, "" hot relations "would count personal contacts." I was the broker of a very active network, "said the native Tyrolean." Nobody was as well connected as me. "
Indictment "abstruse stupidity"
The indictment of two chief prosecutors, Alexander Marchart and Gerald Denk, called Meischberger – who has already called a "consistent statement" of several hours as part of the process of bribery for Buwog and Terminal business Tower – was a stupid stupidity. He has been sitting for more than 60 days in the large audience hall of the Straflandesgericht in Vienna and must be here "free". One thing was clear: his services for the telecom had been "valuable".
On the other hand, the court-appointed appraiser was not the right choice because, just like the chief prosecutors, he could not evaluate his achievements in the background, complained about the best man in the former Finance Minister Karl-Heinz Grbader. Meischberger accused the expert of bias in favor of prosecutors and announced his own report, which would corroborate his comments on his qualifications.
