German court rejects Iraqi’s appeal over rape, murder of Jewish teen
2020-05-15
[IsraelTimes] Federal court upholds life sentence for rejected asylum seeker Ali Bashar, almost two years after shocking killing of Susanna Feldman.

A German federal court said Tuesday it had thrown out a rejected Iraqi asylum-seeker’s appeal against his conviction for raping and murdering a 14-year-old local Jewish girl.

Ali Bashar
...the Iraqi Kurd known wolf, also in our archives as Ali B. and Ali Basar, is a living example of the legal maxim Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus...
was sentenced to life in prison by the Wiesbaden state court in July following a four-month trial in a case that fueled tensions over migration.

The court ruled there was a "particular severity of guilt," meaning that he likely won’t be released after 15 years as is common in Germany.

Bashar, who was 21 at the time of the killing, was convicted of assaulting and murdering Susanna Feldman
...that would be Susanna Maria Feldman, also in our archives as Susanna F., and Susanna Feldmann. Her mother had to practically turn handsprings in the town square to get the authorities to look into the situation...
in Wiesbaden in May 2018.

Bashar and his family abruptly left a home for asylum applicants in Germany after the killing, and he was later arrested by Kurdish forces in Iraq, handed over to German coppers and flown back to Germany.

Bashar is believed to have arrived in Germany in October 2015.

The Federal Court of Justice said it threw out Bashar’s appeal in an April 28 ruling. Among other objections to his conviction, he had argued that his return from Iraq constituted a "procedural impediment."

#3  ^ They want to have some leverage for good behavior. Therefore, if you want 15 years, sentence them to 30, and let their behavior bring it down...possibly

#2  It's kind of funny how European legal systems routinely lie to the public. 15 years should be 15 years. Life should be life.
