Suspect in 2023 Sylvie Meis Burglary Faces Trial in Hamburg

Prosecutors say the 42-year-old acted with unidentified accomplices using scaffolding to enter her Eppendorf home.

Overview

  • The case is set to open Thursday at 9:30 a.m. at the Hamburg Regional Court, where the defendant is listed as Mu.
  • The accused is charged with joint residential burglary in connection with the July 2023 break-in.
  • Prosecutors value the stolen goods at about €500,000, down from earlier estimates of more than €800,000.
  • Investigators say the burglars climbed neighboring scaffolding to reach the roof and forced entry, targeting luxury handbags and, according to TAG24, jewelry.
  • Other suspects have not been identified, and Meis’s management says she was informed of the trial date on January 2 and has not been called as a witness.
