Hans-Jürgen Rose

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hans-Jürgen Rose (* probably 1961 ; † December 8, 1997 in Dessau ) was a man who died shortly after he was released from the Dessau-Roßlau police station in Saxony-Anhalt .

The unemployed mechanical engineer Hans-Jürgen Rose was picked up by the police on the evening of December 7, 1997 because he had been driving a car while drunk. On December 8, 1997, he was found seriously injured on a footpath just a few meters from the Dessau police station. His most severe internal injuries included a torn lung, broken rib, and broken spine. He died in hospital as a result of these injuries.

According to the medical practitioner Claus Metz, who had looked through the files on Rose, Rose was handcuffed to a pillar in the back of the Dessau police station and tortured with steel clubs. According to forensic doctors who examined Rose's body in 1998, the severity of Rose's injuries corresponded to what "would have been expected in the event of a fall from a great height". Presumably, Rose was placed in the position outside the police station in which he was found by a passerby.

The cause of Rose's death is still officially unclear. A preliminary investigation has been closed. According to the Ministry of the Interior of Saxony-Anhalt, there are no longer any police reports on the death, neither in written nor in digital form.

The case gained prominence in connection with the investigation into the case of Oury Jalloh , who died in the same police station that Rose was brought to shortly before his death. In this case, too, the police officer Andreas S. was the head of the department.
