No charge against Rudi Assauer's daughter – court dismisses proceedings
A court has rejected the charge against the daughter of former Schalke manager Rudi Assauer. This is reported by Google News DE — Crime (de) citing WELT.
At the centre of the case is a document whose authenticity is being questioned. The defence lawyer described the document as "completely undone" – an indication that, in the defence's view, the handwriting did not correspond to the actual condition of the author at the time.
Rudi Assauer, the long-time manager of FC Schalke 04, died in February 2019 following a prolonged illness of Alzheimer's disease. Since then, his estate has been the subject of legal disputes.
The court apparently saw no sufficient grounds for a main hearing and rejected the opening of the charge. Further details regarding the reasoning behind the decision and the specific allegations against the daughter have not been publicly communicated as of the present time.
