Since the 1980s, a now 62-year-old German has been up to mischief as a false “Swiss doctor”. Throughout Germany he passed himself off as a doctor from Switzerland. In the Swiss dialect, he promised women the blue of heaven – for example a carefree life as a doctor’s wife in Switzerland.
The only problem is that the man had only been released from prison a year ago. He was serving a prison sentence of several years for assault and abuse of title. In the meantime, new arrest warrants were available: The wrong doctor is now also charged with particularly serious rape. He is also said to have offended children. In addition, burglary, stolen property, dangerous bodily harm and fraud are investigated.
The handcuffs clicked in Saarbrücken on Thursday, as reported by German media. For decades, the sex offender and fraudster sought after internationally had not only presented himself as a fake Swiss with a fake doctor’s title. Part of his legend was that he worked for the aid organization Doctors Without Borders.
Sacrifice falls from all clouds
In alleged treatments by him, the alleged Swiss specialist, the man is said to have mostly been sexually assaulted. He recommended massages and the straightening of limbs, which led to abuse.
He also stayed with the women for a short time, including his last victim, a woman in Saarbrücken’s Klarenthal district. She wanted to start a new life with the 62-year-old who had been living with her for several weeks.
The woman had already quit her job and wanted to move to Switzerland with her great love. When the target investigators appeared in her apartment on Thursday, she fell from the clouds. (kes)
