Caught without a license: Judge gives Kida Khodr Ramadan a long prison sentence

It’s not gangster style at all: He drives up to interviews in a white Mercedes-Benz B-Class and always sits in the passenger seat. Kida Khodr Ramadan does not have a driver’s license. But apparently he doesn’t always have his driver with him. Like on November 21, 2020. The actor is said to have driven a car near his apartment in Berlin without having the required driver’s license. With now fatal consequences.

The District Court of Berlin Tiergarten issued a penalty order against Kida Khodr Ramadan on Monday. This was confirmed by a spokeswoman for the Berlin judiciary star. The actor, who became known with the series “4 Blocks”, is apparently a repeat offender. Ramadan is said to have been behind the wheel in several cases without a driver’s license. The court therefore imposed a sentence of ten months in prison. However, the judge was lenient. The 45-year-old does not have to go behind bars, the sentence is suspended for two years.

Kida Khodr Ramadan can appeal

In addition, Ramadan has to pay 10,000 euros each to two non-profit organizations. The penalty order is not yet final. The actor can appeal against it. Ramadan did not appear in court himself, but was represented by his lawyer. In this case, the Code of Criminal Procedure allows a penalty to be issued as a penalty order.

For the role of Toni Hamady in the Netflix series “4 Blocks”, Ramadan was awarded several prizes, including the Grimme Prize and the German Television Prize. He is friends with actor Frederick Lau, with whom he wrote the book Together We Are Kings. What Makes Men Friends in 2018.
