Prince Ernst August on Trial for Assault in Germany
June 15th, 2009
Princess Caroline of Monaco’s husband, Prince Ernst August of Hannover, is currently on trial in Germany for the January 2000 beating of a Kenyan hotel owner.
This trial, a retrial of a 2004 verdict, is expected to last 11 days and may include testimony by Princess Caroline, a witness to the reported beating. Although the reported attack occurred in Kenya, the trial is being held in Germany under special laws for foreigners.

That really sucks
In all honest it sounds horrible, one can only it’s not as bad as it seems but if such an altercation did occur then a reason must have followed. Or it was a simple missunderstanding and ALOT OF Merry-ment.
