Collien Fernandes stalking case reopened by German prosecutors
There is movement in the investigation into the case of presenter Collien Fernandes. Following a reassessment, the public prosecutor's office has reopened the proceedings.
New development in the Collien Fernandes case: The public prosecutor's office has reopened its investigation. As reported by "t-online", the responsible authority in Itzehoe confirmed the move on Friday on request.
"The investigation has been resumed after reviewing the media publications," explained Chief Public Prosecutor Peter Müller-Rakow. As it became known in the afternoon, it is about the accusation of stalking.
The case goes back to a criminal complaint from November 2024. Fernandes had filed a complaint against an unknown person at the time. The background to this was the suspicion that someone may have created a fake profile of the presenter on social networks.
Proceedings transferred to Schleswig-Holstein
The public prosecutor's office in Berlin was initially involved in the case. However, following an investigation, the proceedings were transferred to the relevant authorities in Itzehoe.
The reason for this is apparently that Fernandes lives in Schleswig-Holstein and the fact that she became aware of the alleged incident there.
No further details of the ongoing investigation are currently known.
