The public prosecutor’s office had accused mice of hiding large assets under a cover and evadeding taxes in millions of dollars. The former Chancellor Minister Bernd Schmidt had testified in process in January that assets were a secret fund. It is internally referred to as an “international reserve” and has been deposited by or States, including USA.

Maus argued in process that he had managed money in trust, it was not to be assigned to him privately. That is what Public Prosecutor’s office looks different. It had refore called for a prison sentence of six years and three months. However, defense had requested acquittal.

The 77-year-old mouse was in front of Bochum district Court since end of September last year. He had worked repeatedly in past few decades for federal government and police authorities. Among or things, mouse is to have contributed 1976 to re-acquisition of stolen Cologne Cadral in Belgrade, as well as arrest of RAF terrorist Ralf Pohle in Ans in same year.
