As a Red Army Faction terrorist, Brigitte Mohnhaupt didn’t take the right to live very seriously - but now the killer is moaning about how she was portrayed in a film.
Brigitte Mohnhaupt 1977
RAF terrorist Brigitte Mohnhaupt (59) was released from prison in 2007 after 24 years inside.
Mohnhaupt is taking legal action against the producers of ‘Der Baader-Meinhof Komplex’ over a sex scene in the German movie.
The 59-year-old ex-terrorist is upset at film company 'Bernd-Eichinger Produktion' and the 2008 film's scriptwriters Hoffman and Campe over the way in which she is presented in the scene, which begins with the following dialogue:
Nadja Uhl (playing Mohnhaupt, pictured on the left in the above photo): Nearly five years in jail.
Vinzenz Kiefer (playing fellow ex-terrorist Peter-Jurgen Boock): It’s a long time.
Nadja Uhl: I haven’t had sex with a man in that long.
The dialogue is then proceeded by a sex scene with the terrorist.
The film company is defending its artistic licence and is refusing to delete the scenes. The Hamburg state court dismissed a preliminary order from Mohnhaupt’s lawyer.
The RAF has been making headlines in Germany recently, after the release of former terrorist Christian Klar from prison was met with outrage by the people and many leading figures.
