Another Wirecard day at Munich's prison court Stadelheim today, July 26, 2023. Dagmar Schneider, former Finance Manager was questioned for a few hours, who stated multiple times that she "could not remember".

Court chamber presented a chat of former CEO Braun with Andrea Goerres, former Head of Legal Department. In it, Braun angrily expressed his concerns why court procedures concerning the FT report and whistleblower complains from Singapore had not been withheld to prevent crisis
Braun made a convincing statement at the end of the court meeting today, where he dismantled allegations & widespread believe that Wirecard directors deliberately tried to cover up the scandal in Asia-Pacific, as uncovered by @Laan_Pa & @FT.
He stressed he had a lot of respect for Andrea Goerres, it was she who proposed to Braun that one legal way to engage in damage control and to "fight back" the 2019 allegations, which were identified as "unsustainable" by Singapore lawyers, was to withheld court papers.
Braun stated also that Andrea Goerres and others were "emotionally upset" about @FT reports and Singapore allegations after internal Wirecard audit claimed "no issue", were engaging communication partner on how to respond to outside pressure.
He clearly debunked another narrative that was mass-media channelled a few months earlier which claimed that Andrea Goerres was not close to Braun.

Braun was clear, precise and convincing in his statements. He could prove that Managing Board did know about the issues, that things were addressed and that a results of the issues in Singapore, where 2 local lawyers were at war with each other, was to strengthen compliance.
The internal Wirecard audit claimed there was "no material issue" concerning the issues reported by Financial Times in 2019, Braun verified this and took the results for granted since they came from lawyers and internal auditors.
