This Thursday, professional soccer player Jérôme Boateng will appear in court in Munich for the second time. In September 2021, the former national player was sentenced by the district court to a fine of 1.8 million euros for intentionally causing physical harm to his former partner Sherin S. On the other hand, Boateng, who had played for Bayern Munich for ten years, appealed. Now he will face S., the mother of his twin daughters, again, this time before the District Court I.
