A cross-party group of Irish politicians urges the Irish government to raise concerns with Germany about the treatment of an Irish defendant, Daniel Tatlow-Devally, ahead of his trial connected to the “Ulm 5” case. The politicians say they want Ireland to send observers to the high-security proceedings in Germany and to press German authorities over issues they associate with his detention.
According to reporting, the group includes Sinn Féin’s Mairéad Farrell and members from other parties. They say they attended a hearing in Stuttgart on Wednesday and discussed the circumstances of Tatlow-Devally’s imprisonment. The delegation also links its calls to the timing of German Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s visit, urging that concerns be raised during or around that period.
The German case centres on alleged involvement by the “Ulm 5” activists in an attack on an Israeli arms company. The Irish politicians’ public request focuses on monitoring the trial and ensuring that due process and detention conditions are addressed through diplomatic engagement. The outlets characterize the matter as a human-rights and procedural concern rather than commenting on the underlying charges.
