Law enforcement agencies actively hunt for right-wing extremist, identified as Liebich
In a surprising turn of events, Marla Svenja Liebich, a convicted right-wing extremist, is currently being sought by the Halle public prosecutor's office after failing to report to begin her prison sentence in Chemnitz on September 1, 2025. According to reports, Liebich claims to be in Russia.
The search for Liebich is being conducted in coordination with the Halle police and prosecution. Local authorities in Halle and the state are also involved in the search, while civil groups call for further clarification from the authorities.
Liebich was sentenced to a total of 18 months' imprisonment in July 2023 for incitement of the masses, slander, and insult. On Friday evening, a post was published on the X platform under the name Sven Liebich, which was Liebich's name at the time of sentencing. The post announced an unspecified decision, and it is believed that this announcement may have led to Liebich's disappearance.
No further details about the content of the post on the X platform were provided. It is also unclear what follows after the announcement of Liebich's decision. What is known, however, is that Liebich did not report to the prison in Chemnitz as expected, making her a fugitive from justice.
The Halle prosecution has issued an arrest warrant for Liebich, and it is suspected that an international arrest warrant may have been issued following her decision. No lawyer or family was aware of Liebich's plans, leaving many questions unanswered.
As the search for Liebich continues, authorities urge anyone with information regarding her whereabouts to come forward. Liebich's case serves as a reminder of the importance of complying with the law and the consequences that come with evading justice.
