Dear friends and comrades, this is a message from our threatened activist Mbolo Yufanyi.
“On the 14th of December, I was visited by the court Bailiff Johann Jöns of the district court of Berlin Neukölln. He told me that the next visit will be with the Police and this time, it will be to arrest me. He threatened me that this could also happen even on Christmas
Eve”.
ALARM. Protest Rally and Vigil: When? Day X (day of my arrest).
Where? Where I will be brought to. The prison where I will be brought to, be it in Berlin or elsewhere. You will be informed by us when that happens.
„I stay by my words. I will not pay for my daughter being taken away from me by Germany“

Our Community is under threat - Mbolo Yufanyi needs your Solidarity!
The VOICE Refugee Forum in Germany:
As we all have been promptly informed by the above mail from Mbolo Yufanyi and previous releases from The VOICE Refugee Forum, we should really reckon that he now faces the prospect of being arrested at any time from now on. We should therefore be prepared to stage a series of actions as soon as they carry out their threat. Good that we have been warned so we should be ready to act should anything happen to him. Others should see how they can support our solidarity call and the demands of Mbolo Yufanyi.
We, activists of The VOICE Refugee Forum are in Solidarity with Mbolo Yufanyi's demands to protest with him against every threat of his arrest and imprisonment and we are against the racist decision by the district court of Goettingen and the regional court of Braunschweig to separate him from his daughter since 2007. The arrest and imprisonment of Mbolo is also a threat to the harmonies in our international communities and families in Germany and this has been and is still the goal of Mbolo’s fight, to keep these Communities together. Many of us have been separated from our beloved ones and Mbolo Yufanyi is the first to carry out the disobedience of a racist court decision, against the backdrop of facing jail terms. This is a test for our different Communities.
What we stand to gain!
We will fight and campaign to open the German prison gates to free the victims of racist imprisonments in Germany.
Mbolo will resist the arrest and we join his call to protest and fight for his freedom if arrested, and also for the freedom of all victims of racist imprisonment and against the racial profiling of the German authorities. If they touch Mbolo, they touch us all.
We call on all activists, friends, progressive men and women and groups to join us in our protest to denounce the ongoing threats of racist arrest and imprisonment of one of our leading activists.
We are in consultation with his lawyer and we shall be keeping you abreast with any new developments regarding this situation.
Please spread this information as wide as possible and ask your friends and colleagues to join us and fight for Mbolo Yufanyi‘s right to freedom and to be a father to his daughter whom he has not seen regularly for years now. His daughter and present family need him.
Please join to protest by writing and spreading the fax campaign and support us stop the continous intimitation of Mbolo without further threat of imprisonment.
We protest the Racist elements of the court case and decisions of 2007 that took away the „Sorgerecht“ as a father from Mbolo Yufanyi. https://thevoiceforum.org/node/1918

Concerning the arrest warrant
Before the New developments concerning the arrest warrant against a black father and activist who wants to be a father for his daughter, but is not allowed to.
After several protests against the arrest of the black father and activist took place, the arrest warrant, which was issued against him in 2007, was transferred further to another bailiff. The court executor (JVHS a. GV) Mr. Johann Jöns has summoned Mr. Yufanyi Movuh Mbolo for the 02/12/2010 in order to enforce a statutory declaration, this time without giving his official email address or fax number. The reason is probably to avoid further electronic protests and fax campaigns. The court executor is in possession of a warrant if Mr. Yufanyi Movuh does not appear on the above date.
Mr. Yufanyi Movuh will not go to the appointment of the new court executor and will continue to protest against the racist decisions of the District Court of Göttingen and Braunschweig Higher Regional Court. The two courts withdrew the right to custody of his daughter Anna Nulia Yufanyi Movuh Nkume from him. The decision was based on a claim (also based on a racist stereotype) of his White German ex-wife, Kerstin Gierth, who claims that Mr. Yufanyi wanted to kidnap his daughter and take her with him to his native country Cameroon (in spite of his studies and residence here in Germany).
Mr. Yufanyi has instructed a lawyer in Berlin, to fight for the rights of his daughter. Nevertheless, his warrant of arrest still stands as a result of his refusal to pay the legal fees of his ex-wife.
To continue the support of Mr. Yufanyi Movuh, we now focus our protest faxes and emails to the President of the District Court of Neukölln: Wolfgang Schollmeier.
We thank all those who have protested against the arrest of the activists Yufanyi Movuh. The protest has been effective – that is why he is not in prison. We ask for further support of Mr. Yufanyi Movuh’s father-daughter campaign for his rights and the rights of his daughter.
Because we defend the rights of Mr. Yufanyi as a father, we call on all to send mails and faxes to the executing officer, JVHS a. GV Johann Jöns, to protest against the arrest of Yufanyi Movuh Mbolo.
Please send protest faxes and emails to:
the President of the District Court of Neukölln: Wolfgang Schollmeier with a copy of the fax to: the_voice_berlin@gmx.de, The VOICE Berlin.

E-mail: poststelle@secuted by one of your court executors, Mr. Johann Jöns, who has already summoned Mr. Yufanyi Movuh for the 02/12/2010, with the aim of forcing an affidavit for Mr. Yufanyi Movuh.
I / we find it unacceptable that not only the custody of Mr. Yufanyi for his daughter has been withdrawn, but also he is punished for not accepting the racist decision of the District Court and the Court of Appeal. For more than three years, his daughter has had little contact with him and since July 2007 the mother of Mr. Yufanyi’s daughter violated all regulations of both courts by staying over two years in Mexico and now, after her return, she does not want that he stays in real contact with his daughter and that he assumes responsibility. The right of the child to have contacts to both parents is clearly violated here, although the court claims to have decided in the best interests of the child. Mr. Yufanyi was granted a one day per week “right to visit” from his daughter. Since three years, this possibility is undermined by the mother. He has already instructed a lawyer from Berlin to fight for the rights of his daughter.
Nevertheless, he is being threatened with an arrest warrant for the refusal to accept lawyer fees of his ex-wife.
I / we stand behind Mr. Yufanyi’s decision. For the possibility to take responsibilities as a father and to protect his daughter’s right to have a father, both need the opportunity to see each other whenever they want. As a father, Mr. Yufanyi is an important person and reference for Anna Nulia Yufanyi Movuh to convey to her the African part of her identity.
It is only logical, that Mr. Yufanyi cannot pay the costs of a trial that denied these rights to him and his daughter.
If Mr. Yufanyi is arrested, I / we will do everything politically possible to maintain his right as a father and the right of his daughter.
Therefore, I / we ask you not to allow the warrant of arrest under your jurisdiction to be implemented and rather to advocate for its repeal and for the rights of Mr. Yufanyi and his daughter.
Yours sincerely,
