Overview

• Daniela Klette, accused of 13 armed robberies between 1999 and 2016, remains on trial under heightened security in Celle's State Security Courtroom.
• The court rejected defense motions to dismiss or delay the trial, emphasizing that sufficient time was provided to review evidence, including 18 terabytes of data.
• Judges reaffirmed that the charges are unrelated to Klette's alleged RAF-linked activities, which remain under separate investigation.
• The defense claims the trial is politically motivated and unfair, citing extensive security measures as indicative of bias, but the court dismissed these arguments.
• Proceedings are scheduled to relocate to Verden by May or June after renovations to accommodate security needs are completed.
