You seem to assume that she did something illegal based on the account being blocked, but that doesn't always work like that

    Did you even read my comment? This is precisely the point. If something illegal happened through her bank account, that would be the only viable reason to block it. If not, there is no justification to block it.

    The account blocking has taken a form recently that I condemn, I don't think this should be used in the political discourse.

    From the information I could gather about the case, I can't say what happened through her account. There are some vague statements from the Bundespressekonferenz that make it seem like the government/EU takes that position. The family and lawyer claim the opposite.

    In this case, I would tend to side with the family until we know more. My point was just that there is quite a stretch between blocking a bank account and starving children.
