Tokio Hotel

Militant Stalkers?

April 19, 2009, 11:29

To much closeness: According to statements of their management, he band TH and their families feel followed and threatened for a while already by a group of female stalkers. TH manager David Jost said, the four young men around singer Bill Kaulitz (19) and their families had frequently changed their place of living because of that. Right now, the musicians were being harassed by masked girls.

Jost confirmed that this had also been the background to an incident at a Hamburg fuel station where Bill's twin brother Tom Kaulitz had been in a confrontation with a young woman. "These hooded girls are no fans, but they are militant stalkers, that has nothing to do with being a real fan", Jost highlighted.

After a physical assault on a family member of the Kaulitz-twins, the band had reported an offense to the police against one of the stalkers. "At the start of next week, we will press further charges and among other things will request that these stalkers shall not be allowed any more to approach the band and above all not the family members of the band", Jost wrote in an e-mail. Stalking (obsessive following) is a criminal offense. In Germany the maximum penalty are three years in prison.

According to the Hamburg police, there is an investigation ongoing against Tom Kaulitz, because he is supposed to have inflicted slight injuries in the face to a 21 year old last Wednesday evening. Jost confirmed also this incident, but pointed out: "Neither Tom nor another member of the band would ever raise their hand against a fan!"

According to the newspaper "BILD", the young woman supposedly is the member of a French group named "Les afghanes on tour", who always appear hooded and aggressively stalk the band.

Update:

Question - What do you think of this

I think it's good if the girls get three years in Prison or life =)

    Thank you so much!!

    This letter/ e-mail makes me so happy.

    Especially that last quote from Jost, "Neither Tom nor another member of the band would ever raise their hand against a fan!" I broke out into a smile when I read that and felt like screaming for joy. I don't know what came over me...it was quite strange lol. I knew they would never hurt a fan before reading this but, It's just good to hear that all these incidents with the stalkers haven't made the boys sick of their real fans.

    And it's great to hear that these girl's could go to prison for 3 years. It makes my heart flutter with excitement that justice will be served for all of the horrible things they've been doing to our boys for the past 6 months.

    Just think...if Tom would have never hit her...those girls would still be out their harassing them everyday. Tom, you're a hero XD

    I saw this earlier as well, I think it's great that an official statement has been made and those stupid rumours like "Tom hit an innocent fan who just asked for an autograph" can be put to rest.

    Good to know that those girls are getting charged, but its pretty unfair the guys had to change where they lived a few times because of them.

    I hope they get many years in prison too :)

    When I first heard of the incident, I knew there would be a good reason, and I'd probably have done the same

    ahh thanks for the update=) i was really worried. i cant stop thinking about everything that has happened. i really hope that those stalkers go to jail for a longggggg time. my heart goes out to tom and the rest of the people who where harrassed by these freaky stalker bi*chs.

  • i think it's horrible. fyi, sometimes people who go to jail don't stay in there for the amount of time they suppose to. if these girls do go to jail, there might a chance that they might not be in jail for 3 years.
