In a recent development, Leni Breymaier, the former state leader of the Social Democratic Party (SPD) in Germany, has lost a court case against a Stuttgart brothel operator. The case was heard in the civil chamber of the Stuttgart Regional Court.

The court ruled that Breymaier failed to provide concrete evidence for her claim about the Stuttgart brothel operator. Breymaier had made statements on a TV show suggesting that the operator's establishment was involved in human trafficking and exploitation of women. However, the court deemed her statement as a false factual claim.

The court spokeswoman stated that Breymaier could not name any concrete and objectively verifiable findings about the plaintiff's brothel operation. The court also stated that Breymaier relied on general statements about criminal phenomena in the red-light district instead of providing concrete findings.

As a result, Breymaier has been ordered to pay the court costs and the lawyer's fees of the Stuttgart brothel operator. Additionally, the court has forbidden Breymaier from repeating this statement. It is important to note that if Breymaier decides to appeal, the Higher Regional Court will handle the case.

It is crucial to emphasise that this ruling does not imply any judgment on the general issue of human trafficking or exploitation in the sex industry. The court's decision is specific to the case at hand and does not reflect on the broader issue.

Leni Breymaier has said she will wait for the written reasons for the judgment before deciding whether to appeal. For those interested in following the case, Breymaier needs a Staatsanzeiger subscription to subscribe to topics and save articles.
