The Higher Regional Court of Munich set the date of the verdict in the trial for the National Socialist Underground (NSU) on July 11. The main defendant, Beate Zschäpe, has distanced herself from her closing remarks on the right-wing scene
The right-wing ideas have "no sense", said Tuesday the 43-year-old MP in front of the Munich Higher Regional Court. "I finished with this chapter", she is quoted by "Spiegel Online". Zschäpe reiterated that she knew nothing of the actions of her alleged accomplices Uwe Mundlos and Uwe Böhnhardt for a long time
"The terrible magnitude of terrible acts"
"S & # Please do not judge me by proxy something that I did not want or do, "she told the judges, and Mundlos and Böhnhardt were kidnapped for life during their exhibition. On July 11, the verdict must be rendered in more than five years of proceedings.
"I had no idea why these people had been selected," said Zschäpe watching the victims. She has long repressed parts of reality.Finally rendering to the authorities had been "a kind of liberation." It was only at that time that she "had pieced together piece by piece the horror of the terrible actions of Uwe Böhnhardt and Uwe Mundlos "
" F ind a conclusion "
Zschäpe only had one more than 400 days trial the word was taken. For more she had missed the physical and mental power, she said in the explanation hastily presented. She feels that she misinterprets every word falsely or negatively. "I just want one thing: find a degree to be able to live a life without fear at any given time."
Addressing the families of the victims, many of whom had persecuted the trial in the courtroom Zschäpe said: "I am a compassionate person and have been able to see and feel the distress and despair of loved ones. (…) I apologize for the suffering I have caused. She made some serious mistakes and found them.
Four other NSU assistants and supporters are sitting next to Zschäpe on the dock. They kept their last words short, a renounced altogether. Carsten S., who would have helped get the murder weapon, said, "I was not myself then."
Murder of Xenophobia
The NSU is responsible for ten murders, two bombings and 15 robberies were blamed. The motive was in almost all cases xenophobia. Most of the victims were of Turkish and Greek descent.
The German Federal Public Prosecutor considers Zschäpe to be an accomplice and has asked for life imprisonment with pre-trial detention. The two defenders of Zschäpe declare that they are innocent of the murders and attacks.
The defenders see Zschäpe's fault for the other offenses: their three original public defenders consider only a simple arrest warrant, their two defenders to a maximum of ten years in prison to assist in numerous raids. Zschäpe burned down his house in 2011 before going to the police.
