Reporter legend Manni Breukmann wins identity

Manni Breuckmann is one of the most famous football votes in the country, he is a legend of the Manni Breuckmanns reporting. The great popularity of Breuckmanns wants to take advantage of a man to create attention to his contributions on the Internet. That s over now and is under punishment.

The former Manni Breuckmanns reporter Manni Breuckmann has achieved in court that his name can no longer be misused on the Internet. A man from Oer-Erkenschwick in the district of Recklinghausen has committed itself to the Bochum district court of his lawyer by comparison to no longer act as Manni Breuckmann on the Internet and delete his appropriate accounts on Facebook and Instagram until mid-November.

In the case of his wife, Breukmann had been made aware of his wife on critical comments, which seemingly published under his name on Facebook - among other things, according to a press conference of ex-prime Minister Armin Lashet to the Corona situation. This had been embarrassing, Breuckmann explained on the edge of the process before the 8th civil chamber.

The Facebook account was also provided with a profile picture, which showed a man with a gas mask. I shuddered when I saw the picture for the first time, said Breuckmann. The judges at the Bochum district court had signals equal to the beginning of the process that the name rights of the real Manni Breukmann had been injured. The defendant sees the name apparently only to draw attention, says Richter Klaus Brünger.

The false Manni Breuckmann, who is actually quite different, had not appeared in court himself. His lawyer Paul Kantak explained that it was never the intention of his client to harm Manni Breukmann. He only used the name because he used to be Manni Breuckmanns reporters and had been approached in his hometown Oer-Erkenschwick. The entries were humorous, says Kantak. If his client appears again as a Manni Breuckmann on the Internet, according to comparison of contractual penalties of around 5,000 euros are due.
