The European Parliament decided to waive the immunity of Monika HOHLMEIER (EPP, DE).
As a reminder, the public prosecutor’s office in Coburg has forwarded a request for waiver of the immunity of Monika Hohlmeier, in connection with an offence within the meaning of Article 142 of the German Criminal Code. The proceedings relate to a failure to stop and give particulars after an accident, after Monika Hohlmeier hit another vehicle whilst attempting to park her car in a car park in Lichtenfels (Germany), causing an estimated EUR 287,84 of damage.
Parliament considered that the alleged offence has no clear or direct bearing on the performance by Ms Hohlmeier of her duties as a Member of the European Parliament and does not constitute an opinion expressed or vote cast in the performance of those duties within the meaning of Article 8 of Protocol No 7 on the privileges and immunities of the European Union. Furthermore, Parliament found no evidence of fumus persecutionis, i.e. a sufficiently serious and precise suspicion that the proceedings have been brought with the intention of causing the Member political damage.
The Committee on Legal Affairs adopted the report by Jean‑Marie CAVADA (ADLE, FR) on the request for waiver of the immunity of Monika Hohlmeier (EPP, DE).
The public prosecutor’s office in Coburg has forwarded a request for waiver of the immunity of Monika Hohlmeier, in connection with an offence within the meaning of Article 142 of the German Criminal Code. The proceedings relate to a failure to stop and give particulars after an accident, after Monika Hohlmeier hit another vehicle whilst attempting to park her car in a car park in Lichtenfels (Germany).
Members considered that the alleged offence has no clear or direct bearing on the performance by Ms Hohlmeier of her duties as a Member of the European Parliament and does not constitute an opinion expressed or vote cast in the performance of those duties within the meaning of Article 8 of Protocol No 7 on the privileges and immunities of the European Union. Furthermore, there was no evidence of a sufficiently serious and precise suspicion that the proceedings have been brought with the intention of causing the Member political damage.
On the basis of these considerations, the committee recommended that Parliament decide to waive the immunity of Monika Hohlmeier.
