Bodo Saggel

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bodo Saggel (born November 4, 1939 in Essen , † December 24, 2003 in Berlin ) was one of the leading activists of the left-wing, anarchist scene in Berlin during the protest movement of the 1960s and 1970s.

Life

Bodo Erik Saggel was born in Essen, where he already had access to the criminal scene as a teenager. At the age of 16 he was sent to a reformatory in 1955, at the age of 18 to the juvenile detention center in 1957, then to prison and penitentiary. After his release at the end of 1967, he went to Berlin, joined the Extra-Parliamentary Movement and began to write about the experiences of his ten years in prison. Members of the SDS helped him to print and publish the texts himself.

Bodo Saggel belonged to the hard core of the anarchist " hash rebels ", along with Georg von Rauch , Bommi Baumann and Günter Langer . In connection with “anti-Zionist” actions, he distanced himself from some of his comrades, and in police interrogations he provided detailed information about the scene. He later worked in a Berlin haulage company, then bought a farm in Köhlen in the Wendland region . Here he was involved in the anti-nuclear movement. At the end of the 1990s he moved back to Berlin.

There he died suddenly on Christmas Eve 2003 at the age of 64. His grave is in the Luisenstadt cemetery in Kreuzberg .
