In a significant development, the Berlin Regional Court has convicted two former elite soldiers of the German Armed Forces for severe sexual coercion. The trials for Robby B. and Benjamin K., both former members of the German Armed Forces' elite soldiers, took place on consecutive days this week.
On Tuesday afternoon, Robby B., aged 35, was sentenced to one year and ten months in prison, while Benjamin K., aged 31, received a sentence of one year and eight months. However, the sentences for both former soldiers were suspended, meaning they will not serve their time immediately.

The court also did not provide reasons for the specific sentences handed down to the two former soldiers, nor did they specify if the sentences were subject to any conditions or probation.
The judge who pronounced the convictions against Robby B. and Benjamin K. was Uwe NΓΆtzel, the presiding judge at the Berlin Regional Court. The court did not disclose if either Robby B. or Benjamin K. plan to appeal their sentences.
Additionally, the court did not provide information about any potential impact of the sentences on the German Armed Forces, or if any other individuals were involved in the sexual coercion case. Furthermore, the court did not disclose details about the victims or the circumstances surrounding the sexual coercion.
The Berlin Regional Court did not provide further details regarding the suspended sentences or the trial proceedings for either Robby B. or Benjamin K. The court's decision was announced on Wednesday, following the trial of Benjamin K. on Tuesday and Robby B. on the previous day.
