NEWS - Dessau: Demonstration in Gedenken an Oury Jalloh
January 7, 2018 - Munich, Bavaria, Germany - Two USK police officers walk by a banner that reads ''A COP IS NOT A FRIEND''. In the wake of new revelations regarding the allegedly irregular investigation of Oury Jalloh’s immolation death while in police custody, demonstrations were organized throughout Germany, including 250 participants at Munich’s Sendlinger Tor. During the course of the march, a visitor from Britain began insulting the demonstrators and non-white media representatives with the middle finger and “go back to where you came fromâ€Â. He was subsequently removed from a Tram on Sonnenstrasse by police and criminal charges are pending..Oury Jalloh was a refugee from Sierra Leone who applied for political asylum in Germany. He was jailed in Dessau on Jan. 1, 2005, and was found by guards, burned to death, with his hands and feet bound to the bed. He was the only inmate in the cell and forensic evidence concluded an accelerant was used, along with a lighter, which had no DNA traces on it. Attempts to prosecute the on-duty guards for murder proved unsuccessful due to alleged interference, obstruction, political influence, and cover-up. The case has now been referred to a federal prosecutor. The official account by investigators is that Jalloh set himself on fire, despite a wealth of disputing forensic evidence and reconstructions. In early December, an activist group filed a criminal complaint against a specifically-named officer for murder (FOTO: DUKAS/ZUMA)
