Lawyer Arrested, Held in Psychiatric Ward for Criticising COVID19 Lockdown
In Merkel’s fascist Germany you now may be handcuffed and violently abused by authorities for daring to make legal arguments supporting protest against the mass quarantine.
A German medical lawyer who criticized the coronavirus lockdown law was arrested and taken to a psychiatric ward, where she says she was violently abused by authorities.
Beate Bahner published a press release on April 3rd decrying the German lockdown laws as:
“flagrantly unconstitutional, infringing to an unprecedented extent many of the fundamental rights of citizens.”
“These measures are not justified by the Infection Prevention Act, hurriedly amended just a few days ago,” she asserted. “Long-term restrictions on leaving home and meeting others, based on high-death-rate modelled scenarios, which fail to take account of actual critical expert opinions, and the complete shutdown of businesses and shops with no proof that they pose any risk of infection, are thoroughly unlawful.”
Bahner called for a nationwide protest on Easter Sunday to “end the tyranny at once,” before Heidelberg Police announced that they would seek to prosecute her for inciting Germans to break the law.
On April 13th, Bahner called her sister from Heidelberg’s Klinik fur Allgemeine Psychiatrie describing what happened to her.
After claiming she was “suspiciously” followed by a car, Bahner says she asked another motorist to call the police only for the police to show up, handcuff her and push her to the ground “with massive force.”
Actually, Ms Bahner only called for legal protests against the German Government’s extra-legal violation of the German constitution.

After being driven to the psychiatric facility, Bahner says she was treated like a terrorist.
“I asked to be allowed to sit down and was shown to a bench. Then I asked to have the handcuffs taken off, since it was actually I who had requested police protection,” she recounted. “But instead, I was thrown to the floor again, having my head hurled onto the stone floor from a meter height, which nobody reacted to. Then I was forced to spend the night lying on the floor in some high-security Guantanamo psychiatric clinic…there was no toilet, no sink, though they did allow me water, and there was a bell I could ring, though they ignored it after the third time I pressed it.”
The lawyer was charged for incitement yesterday, with her attorney sounding the alarm bell over her treatment.
“I shouldn’t have to add Bahner’s claims of very grave abuse have untoward connotations of the darkest chapters of German history,” he said.
“The mere fact she claimed to have been so badly abused was what prompted me to write to you. Bahner is in the company of over 50 well-known experts in criticising the nationwide lockdown; I would be glad to furnish you with a list of their names. If it really is the case lawyers critical of government measures can now be intimidated using the state legal apparatus or psychiatry, and can be professionally and socially destroyed, then it is five minutes to midnight in this country.”
Bahner has won three cases in the Federal Constitutional Court and written five books on German medical law.

This is complete nonsens. It’s even worse than nonesense, it’s a real conspiracy from German conspiracy nutters called “Reichsbürger”. One can’t make this sh… up.
If you read German, go read this – from a German right wing blog.

JuergenK, Followed your advice and did some due diligence and read reports translated from German about Beate Bahner. Contrary to your characterization of her as a “conspiracy nutter” it turns out she has had a successful 25 year legal career in the southern German state of Baden-Württemberg, winning three cases before the Federal Constitutional Court (German Supreme Court) in the domain of unlawful infringements of the right to practice one’s profession. She has written five books on medical law, most recently an analysis of the 2016 federal act to tackle corruption in the healthcare system. I also translated her own statements about the lockdown. She comes across as lucid, rational and very much a defender of civil liberties. Am now happily reassured it is you who is the nutter, not her.

I think what gave it away, John, was the reference to a right wing blog. It does make me wonder about the Mental Health sections of the UK Coronavirus Act 2020.

Yes, Finn, We are in very dangerous times when anyone simply advocating nothing more than upholding our long-standing civil rights is labeled ‘right wing.’ Anyone can be arrested now for requesting due process equal treatment under the law.

JuergenK . The point of the piece is not whether what Bahner responded to was an illusory conspiracy. It was the government’s authoritarian response to mere disagreement. If you and other Germans (or many within other populations) cannot figure that out, we seem very close again to the excesses, enormities and brutality of Communism and National Socialism. There is no “left” or “right” about it.
Think about that, Jeurgen.
