Boris Rhein, Hessian Minister-President, Summoned to Testify Over State Secretary Dismissal
Minister-President of Rhineland-Palatinate called to testify before the parliamentary investigation committee - Witness summon for Prime Minister Rhein in the U-Committee proceedings
Get ready for some heated action this Friday! The Hessian state parliament's investigative committee is set to interrogate some heavy hitters, including none other than Minister-President Boris Rhein, concerning the scandalous dismissal of a state secretary from the economics ministry. The public grilling kicks off at 10:00 AM sharp, with Rhein's CDU headquarters interrogation scheduled for 4:00 PM. Other VIPs on the hot seat include Benedikt Kuhn, head honcho of the state chancellery (3:00 PM), and assorted members of the state chancellery staff. The primary focus? The twisted web of information swirling around this mess.
Last summer, economics minister Kaweh Mansoori (SPD) sent packing his non-partisan state secretary, Lamia Messari-Becker, over allegations of unsavory conduct rumored to have occurred in her personal life. Mansoori remains tight-lipped about specifics.
Parent-Teacher Tussle
According to a ruling from the Wiesbaden administrative court, Mansoori claims Messari-Becker abused her state secretary status by bullying teachers during a parent-teacher conference at her daughter's gymnasium to secure a favorable grade. Messari-Becker flatly denies these accusations, insists her reputation's been besmirched, and is fighting back with phalanxes of attorneys.
Other witnesses lined up for the morning round of questioning include civic administrators from Darmstadt, shining a light on a building project tied to Messari-Becker's neighbor.
