On January 7, 2005, Oury Jalloh was murdered and burned in a police cell in Dessau. His friends organized themselves and joined forces with The VOICE Refugee Forum and the Caravan for the Rights of Refugees and Migrants. In early 2006, they launched a nationwide information campaign and organized a mass demonstration on April 1 to clarify Oury Jalloh's murder. They subsequently fought for justice in court and in public and organized solidarity with Oury Jalloh's family. The police officers responsible for the deaths of Oury Jalloh and others—Mario Bichtermann and Hans-Jürgen Rose—have not yet received any significant sentences.
We spoke with two comrades from the caravan about the Oury Jalloh case, the colonial roots of the racism prevalent in Germany and the connections between colonialism, imperialism, flight and migration.
The interview was conducted in written form by Noel Bamen with Araz and Mbolo, who have been politically active in the caravan for years.
