Gina-Lisa Lohfink: Everything important to the process – SPIEGEL ONLINE

What is it?

The Amtsgericht Tiergarten must clarify whether Gina-Lisa Lohfink accused Pardis F. and Sebastian C. wrongly rape. The two men had in June 2012 Sex with Lohfink and made them filming. Parts of the video are circulating for years on the Internet. In some sequences to see how Lohfink “No” and says “Stop”.

How did the procedure?

The prosecution holds Lohfinks rape accusation unfounded. If it were consensual sex. Accordingly, Lohfinks words “No” and “Stop” on the films based. End of 2015 Lohfink got a punishment than 24,000 euros for false accusation. Because the model did not pay, it is now in court.

The investigation by a display Lohfinks for rape were set. Pardis F. and Sebastian C. but received penal because of the proliferation of sex videos. Pardis F. accepted the sanction. Sebastian C. could not be found, his punishment could not be delivered. According to his lawyer he will not accept the punishment. In the case, it may lead to a new method -. With the 32-year-olds instead Lohfink in the dock

What is the process to date result

? So far, the court has heard several witnesses, among other things. Pardis F. said they had amicably threesome. Lohfink have “all fully participated”, the model was not passed out. Lohfink alleged to the police that she had had a blackout at night, felt later, as if someone had their administered knockout drops. It is undisputed that Lohfink drank a lot of alcohol that night.

Lohfinks former manager Alexandra S. said she believed the model, the method for false accusation is incomprehensible.

What can be expected from the trial on Monday?

The court wants to hear as witnesses Sebastian C.. On Friday, he reappeared and dismissed the charges against him via Sat.1 breakfast television back. “There were no drugs involved, and it also has no rape took place. I did not think one second that the ‘Stop’ could refer to the sex,” quoted the “Bild” newspaper from the Sat.1 interview of 32-year-olds. Former VIP manager will answer all questions on Monday announced lawyer Gerlach.

Before the Court are as already expected for start of the trial supporters who want to demonstrate for Lohfink. You may also see the arguments could already be held. Given the surprisingly emerged witnesses is unclear whether a judgment.

Why does the case so much attention?

The process has Lohfink a symbolic figure in the made debate what is a rape and what is not. Critics say Lohfinks utterances in the video could be very well be understood as a clear expression of will Lohfinks against sex. Look Lohfink the victim of a biased justice.

In addition, the case fueled the discussion about a stricter Sexualstrafrecht. The end of July it was adopted by the Bundestag. It enshrines the principle “No means No” in the law. (The background to the law can be read here.)

Lohfinks prominence gives the case extra attention. She took 2008 “Germany’s Next Top Model” in part, was in “Big Brother” and can be seen in “Gina-Lisa’s World” as well as a singer and advertising character for erotic fairs.

If the legal dispute with finished the judgment?

Currently unlikely. The two men have filed a complaint against Lohfink. They accuse her of false accusations, defamation, libel and slander. Lawyer Gerlach, who represents Pardis F. and Sebastian C., announced further complaints, should Lohfink continued to express “defamatory”. “It is now displayed consistently.”

The background is that Lohfink should have publicly repeated its objections to the testimony of F. Pardis. You have said in front of cameras, F. lie “snotty”.
