Private Nationalism #3
On January 7, 2005, Oury Jalloh, an asylum seeker from Sierra Leone, died in a German police cell as a result of a fire. The police version of the case states that it was probably an accident caused by the detainee himself, or suicide, in connection with the ignition of a mattress made of non-flammable material to which Oury Jalloh was handcuffed and shackled.
