    As of December 2023, there are three PESA cases with the Swedish Court of Appeal, who has still not ruled in any of them. There is also one case in Germany (Kammergericht in Berlin) and one in Spain at the Sala de lo Civil y Penal del Tribunal Superior de Justicia de Madrid. These all concern just civil cases, and the resulting litigation costs are not part of this fundraiser.

    In various countries, police reports have been filed, and the prosecutions in Sweden and Poland are now on the case. For more information, please contact AxelBrandenburg@gmail.com. This concerns the criminal case, which is not public. The litigation costs of this are part of this fundraiser. The fund will be used to support Piotr Lebek, a lawyer in Poland who is developing the case for the prosecution on Poland. The lack of background checks at the Court of Appeal in Sweden is potentially part of the investigation.
