Declaration
concerning the arrest of Dr. med. Ryke Geerd Hamer
Dr.
Hamer was arrested by the Spanish National Police on September 9 around 10
a.m., at his doorstep.
He
was first taken to a jail in Malaga (Comisaria Central de la Policia
Nacional, Plaza de Hazana). According to a policeman from Malaga, the
order came through Interpol from France to the Spanish Police.
Dr.
Hamer spent one night in Malaga and shared his prison cell with a
homosexual by whom he was hassled continually.
The
morning of September 10, he was taken to Madrid where he was obviously
considered to be a dangerous offender, as he was locked into a cold room
for 8 hours, left wearing only his underwear, and received nothing to eat.
At
present, the conditions of his detention are better and he is being
treated decently. Considering the circumstances, he is doing relatively
well.
In
the meantime, his closest friends have put him in contact with a Spanish
lawyer with whom Dr. Hamer feels comfortable with.
It
has become known in the meantime that the court hearing in France, i.e.
the appeal to the “Cour de Cassation” is by no means decided.
According to his French lawyer, this could take another 2-3 years.
Therefore, we are dealing here with a “preventive arrest” with the
exclusive goal to extradite Dr. Hamer to France and to finally get him
locked up in a psychiatric institution from where he may never leave again.
This
has to be stopped under all circumstances!
The
hasty arrest can not be truly justified on grounds of “risk of escape”
since Dr. Hamer has been living at the same address for years and has
never tried to leave from there, and he certainly has not been in hiding.
As
well, the extradition
papers give no reason as to why a prison term of 3 years was
imposed. It is obvious that this has clearly been an arbitrary action,
particularly as the authorities, if anyone, are most familiar with the
laws.
The
German authorities have not been supportive in any way - to the contrary.
Last
Sunday, his closest friends were allowed to visit him and were able to
talk to him for 40 minutes. Dr. Hamer was very pleased and touched by all
the sympathy and solidarity. He gives his heartfelt thanks to all those
supporting and helping him now, be it in their thoughts, through actions
or through donations. And he is enthusiastic that so much is happening
right now in regards to the German New Medicine, because the GNM has never
needed this help as urgently
as now.
He
also communicated that the last sentence in his new book “Cancer and All
so-called Diseases. A Brief Introduction into the German New Medicine”
is meant exactly as it was written!
Dr.
Hamer requested that the circumstances of his arrest may be announced to
the public.
How did the
sentencing and the arrest of Dr. Hamer come about?
Dr.
Hamer is being accused by the “Tribunal de Grande Instance” in Chambéry,
France, of “agitation against medical science and instigation of the New
Medicine, with the purpose of its practice” (Inquiry Custody Order since
1993)
He
is supposed to have committed a crime in France by writing in another
country a French book on the New Medicine. The crime would have been
committed in that he agreed in a telephone conversation with the president
of ASAC (Association “Stop cancer”, France) to being sent CTs of a
patient. In reality it was Dr. Hamer’s son Bernd, also a doctor, who had
been speaking on the phone. His voice is very similar to the voice of his
father.
The
phone line had been (illegally) bugged by French or German authorities.
Following
this, in response to the Chambéry public prosecutor’s request, seven
years later but before the court case, French justice issued an
international arrest warrant that would have forced Dr. Hamer to
“witness” his own trial in handcuffs in the courtroom or from prison.
However, the court summoned him two days too late, making it impossible
for him to comply with the deadline. It is also important to mention that
10 days prior, his lawyer had not yet been able to access Dr. Hamer’s
files.
Also,
the court had already disregarded the verifications of the Universities of
Vienna (1986), Düsseldorf (1992) and Trnava/Bratislava (1998) and kept
them aside from the proceedings even before the trial, to be considered
irrelevant as evidence. In fact, UNAFDI, the state Anti-sect department
became an accessory prosecutor in the case.
Later,
the French courts informed the Spanish authorities that Dr. Hamer’s
extradition from Spain was planned, should he not be present at the next
trial in district court.
This
time, however, following the advice of his lawyer, Dr. Hamer did not
attend by the deadline, as his health was not good enough.
Thereupon
the original sentence of the year 2000 was revoked in Dr. Hamer’s
absence, and the sentence was renewed to 18 months in prison, including 9
months probation. plus a financial penalty.
At
the end of May 2004, something happened which may be unique and
unprecedented in the history of jurisdiction: the French Appeals Court
(Cour d’Appel de Chambéry) simply held the appeal hearing against Dr.
Hamer without that either he or his layer had been called or even notified.
Dr.
Hamer first learned about this hearing on May 27, 2004 when he received a
faxed copy of a newspaper article with the title “Hamer in Hiding” (Hamer
aux abonnes absents). He was found guilty of fraud and complicity in the
illegal practice of medicine.
The
public prosecutor had
requested a long jail term in order to obtain a European arrest warrant.
The previous sentence had been too short, because 9 months of the 18 where
to be on probation. To secure a European arrest warrant a minimum penalty
of 12 months without probation is needed.
On
top of that, Dr. Hamer has been ordered to pay compensation in the amount
of Euro 200.000 to people he has never seen and who are supposed to have
suffered damages through his German New Medicine or his books. Presumably
this is also unique in the delivery of justice.
All
this of course is based on the assumption that the German New Medicine is
false, although there is proof to the contrary. Yet the court refuses for
the 10th time to order a proving of the correctness of the
German New Medicine on the basic of scientific evidence.
Instead,
the lawyer for the Anti-sect department, Joelle V., lamented that ”the
German New Medicine finds further and further ways to spread via the
Internet” and asked the question: “What can be done to stop Hamer - in
the truest sense of the word?”
And
Madame senior public prosecutor, Jakobine D., has requested from the court
to sentence Dr. Hamer to a “long enough sentence to allow requesting a
European arrest warrant”, literally, “at least one year in prison
without probation”. She has even appealed to the European court to
confirm in advance the minimum sentence of one year, to be imposed when
the time will come.
Now
the time has come!
In
July 2004, the sentence was even increased and Dr. Hamer has been
sentenced to 3 years in prison without parole for “fraud and illegal
practice of medicine”. The real reasons why one wants to get a hold of
Dr. Hamer are not these idiotic accusations, but solely the extermination
of the German New Medicine. For this, any means will do. The hope is that
the capture and possible compulsory internment of Dr. Hamer in a
psychiatric institution will put an end to the scientific feud between
traditional medicine and the German New Medicine – a feud that has
become a political issue.
We
will keep you informed.
PS.
Dr. Hamer is allowed to receive mail in prison from anywhere in the
world. Even if he cannot answer letters, he would certainly be happy to
receive them. For those who would like to write, here is his address:
