A court case in Germany against a Latvian national has reached a deadlock. The individual is accused of causing a serious traffic accident that resulted in the death of a young person. The trial has not yet begun on its merits.

During a court session, a proposal was made to conclude the proceedings in absentia by imposing a fine or a penalty order. However, the prosecutor and the representative of the co-plaintiff victims categorically rejected this option, stating that the offense is too serious.

Further details about the charges and the circumstances of the accident have not been disclosed. More information will be provided as the case progresses.
