An Irish delegation, led by Sinn Féin’s Mairéad Farrell, is sounding the alarm over the treatment of Irish activist Daniel Tatlow-Devally in Germany’s high-profile “Ulm 5” trial — where five activists face up to five years in prison for targeting an Israeli arms company. Farrell condemned Tatlow-Devally’s harsh detention, including 23 hours a day in a tiny cell with minimal contact, and urged the Irish PM to intervene during his upcoming talks with the German Chancellor. The activists, who claimed responsibility in videos, say their actions were meant to expose Germany’s arms exports to Israel and push for humanitarian change. But German authorities insist the conditions are justified, while defense lawyers argue the glass barrier separating defendants from their lawyers violates legal rights. The Irish team was barred from speaking directly with Tatlow-Devally — a move they found deeply troubling — and they’re now calling for sustained diplomatic pressure as the trial drags into January.
