The arrest of Hannover prosecutor Yashar G. on bribery charges raises troubling questions about oversight within the Niedersachsen Justice Ministry. Despite an ongoing investigation since June 2024 regarding serious allegations, G. continued to act as prosecutor in a major drug case involving 16 tons of cocaine until August. Politicians are calling the situation a potential judicial scandal, demanding accountability from Justice Minister Kathrin Wahlmann. Meanwhile, G. remains in custody as investigations continue, with previous suspicions of a mole within the prosecution lingering since 2022.
