A 54-year-old man has been found guilty of 67 counts of rape and sexual harassment. He is said to have raped one of the women 62 times and another woman from the accommodation in five cases.

The defendant denied the allegations and accused the women in the trial of falsely accusing him. He was employed in the Nuremberg refugee accommodation from September 2018. The verdict is not yet legally binding, but he has been sentenced to ten years in prison. The court is convinced that the German raped the women.
