  • The Applicant Is a German Citizen, Born in 1924 and at Present Detained in Prison in Bremen
    THE FACTS Whereas, the facts presented by the applicant may be summarised as follows: The applicant is a German citizen, born in 1924 and at present detained in prison in Bremen. He is represented by Mr. S., a lawyer practising in Hanover and acting under a power-of-attorney dated .. September 1968. From statements and from documents submitted, it appears that on .. January 1966 the applicant was convicted by the Regional Court (Landgericht) of Bielefeld for having committed fraud in fifteen cases and as being a recidivist and sentenced to three years' imprisonment. Subsequently, on .. December 1967 he was convicted by the Regional Court of Hanover for having committed fraud in sixty-four cases and as being a recidivist and sentenced to four and a half years' imprisonment. The applicant's complaints under the Convention are concerned with the execution of his sentences. He states that, after having been in detention on remand at Bielefeld from .. July 1965 until .. January 1966 he was conditionally released. His conditional release was revoked on .. June 1966 and he was arrested again on .. August 1966. He was detained at Luttringhausen, and subsequently in Bremen and Hamburg until .. October 1966 when he was again released on condition. On .. January 1967, he was re-arrested and committed to prison in Hanover. It appears, however, that under Article 24, paragraph (1) of the Ordinance relating to the Execution of Sentences (Strafvollstreckungsordnung), Bremen and not Hanover is the proper place of detention in the applicant's case. Consequently, the authorities intended in December 1967 to transfer the applicant to the prison at Bremen Oslebshausen.
