Staatsanwaltschaft Itzehoe

The Staatsanwaltschaft Itzehoe (Public Prosecutor's Office Itzehoe) is a German law enforcement agency responsible for investigating and prosecuting criminal offenses within its jurisdiction. It is currently in the news due to renewed investigations into allegations made by actress Collien Fernandes against her ex-husband, Christian Ulmen. The investigations were initially triggered by a criminal complaint filed by Fernandes in November 2024 regarding a fake online account. While that initial complaint against an unknown person was closed, reportedly due to Fernandes not providing requested information to the police, the Staatsanwaltschaft Itzehoe has now reopened investigations based on new reports and an apparent initial suspicion against Ulmen. The current investigation focuses on potential stalking (Nachstellung) by Ulmen. The case is significant due to the public figures involved and the potential legal ramifications of the allegations.
