**Actor Jimi Blue Ochsenknecht Extradited to Austria Over Unpaid Hotel Bill**
Jimi Blue Ochsenknecht, the son of renowned German actor Uwe Ochsenknecht, has been extradited to Austria to face charges of aggravated fraud related to an unpaid hotel bill from late 2021. The actor was handed over to Austrian authorities in a prisoner transport on July 8, 2025, following his provisional arrest at Hamburg airport at the end of June.
The main dispute involves a hotel bill amounting to approximately 14,000 euros in Tyrol, which remains unpaid despite numerous reminders and court orders. This issue led to a European arrest warrant against Ochsenknecht, who has admitted to taking responsibility for the matter.
In a recent Instagram post, Ochsenknecht publicly acknowledged his mistakes and expressed remorse, stating that he should never have let the situation escalate to this point. Notably, his ex-partner, Yeliz Koc, paid the outstanding hotel bill on his behalf.
There is a second accusation against Ochsenknecht, relating to an unpaid restaurant bill of around 1,900 euros from 2021 in Graz. This bill remains unpaid, prompting the restaurateur to file complaints with public prosecutor offices in Graz and Braunschweig.
Ochsenknecht has been released on bail of 15,000 euros in Austria. During his interrogation, he did not dispute the accusation of the public prosecutor. He has promised to stay in Austria until the end of the proceedings and has deposited his passport with the court.
The judicial authority has stated that Ochsenknecht has been cooperative and has expressed a willingness to resolve the matter. The exact date of the prisoner transport is not specified in the article.
