Heinz Weifenbach, with book in hand, meets Gaddafi
|
Heinz Weifenbach owned a Ice Hockey club, ECD Iserlohn. The club had been rumoured to be in financial trouble for some time and was avoiding tax by making under-hand payments to players. A number of players had been investigated by the German tax department just for this reason. At the time, the club was reported to owe the tax department US$3.4 million.
Eventually the club was on the verge of insolvency; Weifenbach declared that there was no need to panic as he had a found a new sponsor who was willing to support the club with ten million Deutsche Mark. The sponsor turned out to be the organisation marketing Gaddafi's Green Book, the Center for the Studies and Researches of the Green Book, and ECD Iserlohn, on the 4 December 1987, took to the ice against SB Rosenheim with the image of the Green Book emblazoned on its shirts.
The German Ice hockey League reacted promptly, banning the club from using the Green Book as a shirt sponsor. For the following game, the club returned without sponsorship. It was also their last game as afterwards the administrators deregistered it from competition.
Weifenbach Couldn't undersatnd this he saw Gaddafi as a "writer" and declared "The whole thing to be a apolitical issue". The West German Government did not agree, Interior Minister Friedrich Zimmermann stating: "What looked at first like a Halloween joke, is a blatant violation of the political neutrality of the sport."adding "the sport" should not support "criminal elements and terrorism."
in 1969 Zimmermann was quoted "Nonviolent resistance is violence . " - in front of the Border Guard Command Center Peter Kohler: The best quotes from politicians, Baden-Baden 2005, p. 131 He repeated this again in 1983 in regards to organised sit-in’s protesting against the deployment of nuclear missiles in the US military base in Mutlangen stating “the so-called non-violent resistance of a sit-down protest is illegal and criminal violence”
Between 1965 and 1983, with a few gaps, the Federal Armed Forces trained Libyan soldiers, while Libyan police officers attended courses arranged by the Federal Criminal Police Office.
In 1960 Zimmermann was accused of perjury in connection with a corruption case involving Bavarian casinos bribing and blackmailing state officials. He was acquitted in 1961 based on a medical report that stated at the time of the oath Zimmermann mental capacity was diminished due to hypoglycaemia.
Back in 1988 Weifenbach continued his fight for the club's survival, organising a flight to Libya for himself and 25 journalists to meet Muammar Gaddafi. Gaddafi signed copies of the Green Book for the visitors but apparently knew very little about the deal, asking, according to one of the accompaying journalists, "What is the name of this tennis club I am sponsoring?".
Before his demise Weifenbach managed to upset the authorities one more time: the tycoon made an advertising deal with the state owned Deutsche Post, e for 5000 Deutsche post vans carry advertisements for a "new publisher - an answer for a better life". The only published product of this new publisher was Colonel Gaddafi's "Green Book".
Heinz Weifenbach was eventually sentenced to 27 months in prison for tax evasion.
