The dispute between Bushido and clan chief Arafat Abou-Chaker has reached a new, absurd climax with the foreclosure of the villas. A comment from BZ editor-in-chief Miriam Krekel.
On Wednesday, day 72 took place in front of the judge in the long-term trial between rapper Bushido and his former best friend/now clan opponent Arafat Abou-Chaker.
On the same day, the two met in Brandenburg before another instance, the Potsdam District Court. There it was about the foreclosure of the villas and land in Kleinmachnow, which both owned together. The dispute, which (including court costs and personal protection for Bushido and his family) costs taxpayers millions, is becoming more and more grotesque.
The new highlight on Wednesday: there has been trouble about the villas in southwest Berlin for years. At the foreclosure auction, a young man who had previously been completely inconspicuous suddenly reported: Ahmed Abou-Chaker, 21 years old, the son of the clan boss.
He bought Bushido’s and his father’s properties and houses for 7.4 million euros at a fraction of the market value. In other words: everything stays in the hands of the extended family. Where the 21-year-old got the millions from will probably always remain a secret.
The crazy thing about the story: The coup is completely legal. He is another example of how clan families have fooled the German judiciary for decades because they were allowed to do things for far too long. In the end, even quite legally and in front of the public eye – with the blessing of Justitia, so to speak…
