comments on the case Joachim Guilliard FAC / Technical Writer 06/26/2010
FOCUS REPORT
S seven chronological time zones considered from Germany Joachim Guilliard how he could end his life. A book is next to his bunk, the "Encyclopedia of strange deaths. He sees himself as a victim boundless injustice, a Kafkaesque feel powerlessness and handled in the spirit with rope, rat poison and razor blade. Joachim Guilliard considering suicide as his last step on a path that would lead him into a paradise - and ended in hell. For nine months he is stuck here in the city of Mandaue jail on the Philippine resort island of Cebu. "Every day here I lose more of my strength," says Joachim Guilliard. He lies on his bed staring at the ceiling, his thumb drumming on his chest. Trafficking accuses him of the charge. He allegedly forced underage girls into prostitution. "Did I not," he says. GUILLIARD face is friendly, a bit pale. The gray-blond hair long, he has bound to a P ferdeschwanz
. He looks much younger than 60 years. Calm and softly he speaks. His story of how he says it is, false friendship, betrayal and his own naivete. The Philippines is the tropical dream of many German businessmen, tourists and dropouts. Some of them end up in prison. Is it because they use drugs, causing a traffic accident or offend against children. But also because their contacts and Filipino women, they slander, to get to their property. They often wait months, sometimes for years on a process. S ince nine months (right) German Joachim Guilliard sits in jail a Philippine resort island - without a warrant, without trial. The only one who is fighting for his release, a man who has lived through a similar nightmare is raining, dense clouds of Cebu hang like a wet cloth. The local prison is a fortress of barbed wire and concrete. 680 prisoners live here. Each 14 prisoners share a small cell. Ceiling Fans Beat the heat of murderers, rapists, cheaters and thieves. Many inmates are among them, the can not afford a lawyer and from which no one really knows why they are imprisoned. It smells of old urine and sweat. Only Guilliard has a single cell. For slightly more than 3000 € he bought them himself. Ten square feet it is great. It contains a shower, a kitchenette, a bistro table and two wooden shelves on which are dumplings packages and books. I watch television via satellite in Guilliard "euromaxx" and "Becker." At first he has read a lot. But now, he says, he did not think of his situation. Not mentally, not physically. He must prove his innocence, telling the judge, saying his Filipino lawyers. But how? If he listens to no one when no one believes him? Five years ago, Joachim Guilliard moved to the Philippines.
D he was selling his company for Sealing and Polymer Technology made him rich. The rest of his life he wanted to spend in the tropics, to follow his passion for diving, living in a nice villa with private beach and swimming pool, carefree to Cebu, where there is sun in Überfl uss, white sandy beaches, beautiful girls, palm trees. He met fellow who also wanted to secure their fortunes in foreign lands. One of them was his friend. Together they moved through the pubs, drank cocktails, grilled fish on GUILLIARD porch. The friend wanted to open restaurants and bars, but he lacked money. Guilliard helped out, sometimes with two million pesos, with five times. In the end he was almost 20 Million pesos, more than 300 000 €, in the dream of another investment. As the pubs ran Guilliard demanded his money back. Soon after, he says, police officers were standing in front of him. He should come to make a statement. He put in a cell without a warrant, without questioning, without an interpreter that he was granted. What should be his crime? Those who suspected him? Was there an anonymous ad? Perhaps a mistake? Later he learns bar girls had accused him of pimping.
" I've ch leave me in my whole life is nothing to be guilty. I do not need money, a good reputation and have a daughter, Guilliard says. "Why would I do such a thing" He called witnesses to relieve pressure on him, waiters, clerks. The minor bar girls have since withdrawn their statements. They are, they insured under oath, was forced by a human rights organization to sign malicious statements. But none of these witnesses and information to the attention seems to nehmen.Seine Filipino lawyers to clarify Guilliard not, they only demand more and more fees. Only three times has someone called from the German Embassy in him, to ask how he was doing. "Three times in nine months!" Complains the prisoner. The message called for German citizens lawyers bring drugs in case someone gets sick mixes, but not elaborate. Guilliard feels from his home in the lurch. Before the prison is a thin man, he is in a hurry. A prisoner exchange with Alfred Lehnert (left) advises foreign prisoners
refugees and also helps Guilliard, of whose innocence he is convinced. He even sat for 18 months in Philippine custody. Before the highest court of the country he fought for his freedom. Guilliard has hung photos of his daughter on the wall of the cell. With it, he calls it a day a striped shirt with a dark pants, spent the face a bit, holding in his hand He carried a briefcase. This det exploiting his treasure: a written permission to visit the Philippine government, foreign nationals in prisons to be able, alone, without supervision.
A lfred Lehnert is the head of the Foreign Assistance Center, a volunteer counselor. He boxes detained foreigners, which he considers innocent, out of jail - for free. Donations to finance its activities. Lehnert fights alone. "Angel of the prisoners" they call him in the 60-year-old Manila.60 foreigners in the past three years has brought from various prisons, German, Arab, Canadian, New Zealand. Many were victims of intrigue. False, but hard to refute accusations such as adultery or child abuse. Now he has a friend called and asked for help GUILLIARD. "Hold on, Joachim! We'll get you out of here, "said Lehnert, when he comes to visit in GUILLIARD cell, and pats him on the shoulder. "I can not go!" Replies the prisoner. Two hours they talk about his case. Lehnert consoles, giving advice, evokes the prisoner is nothing to put on, promises help tinkering strategies. Guilliard shakes his head and shoulders can hang. There is a gap between the laws of Germany and Philippine reality. Guilliard, whether guilty or not, to his desperate lawlessness. Lehnert attempts to build bridges. Also Lehnert, a former civil engineer, was a millionaire in the tropics. The mild climate, he promised to relieve his back problems.
e r bought fast cars, expensive villas and got married. A few years later showed it to his wife - for alleged sex with a married woman. This was in 2003rd 18 months, he sat in the notorious prison of foreigners Bicutan, Camp Bagong Diwa in the military on the outskirts of Manila, between cockroaches, bed bugs and snakes, "the size of thumbnails. Lehnert fought. He studied the law on foreigners, went through the courts, his case was up before the Supreme Court of the Philippines - and won, the first foreigner ever, acquitted on all counts. Lehnert is stubborn. Still haunt him the pictures of the arrest, his assets will be lost. The lawyers have made enormous sums. His wife has sold his property and sold with the money and their daughter in the Netherlands. Lehnert decided yet to stay. "I had nothing to lose," he says. He founded his consulting office in order for people to use, which happens to be old Albtaum new. Today advises Alfred Lehnert, the Philippine government and plays tennis with ministers.
E r married a high-ranking police officer and wrote on a bill for an improved immigration law. The old rules date from the year 1941. The former prisoner is a respected man, "The Philippine government has realized that foreign nationals have rights," he says. "Above all, investors because they wants to attract into the country. "Before he had been rich," says Lehnert. Now he is happy. He had found something that something is worth fighting for. Lehnert drives a taxi through the narrow streets of Cebu City, past the reflecting office buildings and rickety shacks. Taxis honking passers-by from the street, the smell of fried chicken, love sentimental songs blasting out of open windows. Lehnert wants to go to a former client. At the end of a side street on a hill overlooking the sea, occupies the 73-year-old Alfred Becker, a ground floor apartment. A tepid wind blowing through the window, on the table, a glass of iced tea, on television, a report runs over Haiti. In Becker's Knee is the hand of his young Filipino friend Kezia. He tried a set in broken English, but the sentence fails. Kezia looks at him and smiles. His ex-wife would have him deported to come to his apartments, says Becker and sausages served with potato salad. You have simply asserted that he had raped his daughter. Lehnert has taken the case - and won. Now he handed Becker a document that absolves him and allow him to continue to live in the Philippines. Lehnert ally in the fight against acts of violation of the law is Commissioner Marcelino C. Libanan, head of the immigration service in the capital Manila, a heavy Man with glasses and Charles Bronson-hairstyle. He describes himself 've Pfadfi who serves the law "as. He was "a decent guy," said Lehnert. Once a week the two men meet in Libanans office in the Old City in order to exchange prisoners, or because Lehnert again Libanans requires signature on a release paper. Sometimes they simply talk about their families. Three years ago, took over Libanan the Authority. At that time it was considered one of the most corrupt in the country. "It's a shame what has happened foreign guests," said the officer and raises his right hand in a vow. "We are not a crime syndicate more. The times of . Greed and corruption are over, "flattery, he adds:" Without Alfred's struggle for justice would probably never changed anything "Alfred Lehnert sips his coffee and smiles..
13 German currently sit in Philippine prisons. Last Lehnert told by an instructor in foreign prison Bicutan. He had his visa eight months covered. Alfred Lehnert shakes his head about so much carelessness, but he knows he will be able to help the man in perhaps one or two weeks could be free. From the prison of Mandaue reach him bad news. Joachim Guilliard girlfriend was visiting. It has opened him that she loved another. GUILLIARD lawyers still have no concept. His former friend is submerged. The Judge can not be achieved. She was on a business trip, they say. Lehnert is angry. "As a life is destroyed, and nobody cares," he says, is reflected by the fl at hand on the thigh. Commissioner Libanan can align anything in this case. Lehnert calls again with judges, politicians, lawyers, fully convinced of GUILLIARD innocence. He won the Cardinal Vidal as combatants. The highest Catholic Dignitaries of the country promises to visit Guilliard to bless him and work for a fair and speedy verdict. On Tuesday this week, 2 March is finally set a date. The court heard the case of Mandaue Joachim Guilliard.

Tv Prices After Superbowl
Since June, unfortunately, played many events against which people move demonstrating and protesting on the street had. Including the revised law on asylum, the plight of education in the universities or the right of assembly (sextreme) he fraternity members in the Imperial Palace. On the latter, we would like to talk more.
We were on 21 November 2009 at the demonstration against the hard Kommers at the Imperial Palace, which was attended by some 1500 right-wing fraternity members. Who went on that day by the Vienna city was overwhelmed by the police presence. From the museum quarter up to the Imperial Palace were weighing the executive branch almost trellis. We did not realize what was in store for us in this demonstration. The more surprised we were when we were in the evening with about 500 people from the closed gates of the castle gate, and no one - no one really - Looked ready for violence. Seemed ready to force the executive branch only, which admittedly can be avoided but not when deployed with such weapons. To say
that this demonstration endangered public safety comes close would be absurd. More absurd is the decision of the police, the demonstration against the WKR (Vienna corporation ring) Ball 29 January 2010 to prohibit just this reason. We see democracy and the public safety by prohibiting the counter-demonstration at risk. The police presence on Jan 29, 2010 was even greater than in November last year. Water cannons and police officers from the provinces were ready to Vienna to protect against the "violent, anti-fascist bloc," while 20 meters away from Attac Samba drummers playing rhythms and the clown army peacefully to dance. 20 people who were "guarded" by as many police officers offered a tragic-comic image that made us angry. Behind us we heard someone say, "We should, 'We are peaceful, what are you?" call ". So we were speaking from the heart, because before us we saw about 300 people who were surrounded by police. The disproportionately high number of police officers and their equipment were obviously a pure demonstration of power. The Participants were particularly regisitriert, knew where many of them do not realize that the event was prohibited.
The mood is unfortunately not up to the end of the event remained peaceful - in the boiler escalated the situation. Who went out the first provocation, we can not judge. However, there were scenes filmed to show the initial force by the Executive: video
The experience and numerous reports of harassment of questionable demonstration participants worry us. journalists were hindered in their work and the media coverage conveyed a picture of exclusively violent demonstrators, definitely not the reality. dare
Many people now not to go to such counter-events, because they get from the media suggests a false picture. The fight against fascism loses by this show of force the executive branch in breadth. We also see the ban on the demo, and in the harassment a threat to democracy. We hope that people would actually protest against fascism and the radical right, can not be put off by these messages and make her own picture of such events. It can always be exceptions, but most of the activists fighting to peaceful but firm way for democracy and human rights and against racism, Holocaust denial and antisemitism.
concerns us now ask why the state authority interferes with. And even more: who is for banning the demonstration, the police action and responsibility on 1/29/2010?
