There was no evidence of willfulness on the part of the said person, the agency clarified.
The Berlin prosecutor's office has closed the investigation against German Air Force inspector Ingo Gerhartz, which was conducted due to the interception of a conversation between Bundeswehr officers about the possible use of Taurus cruise missiles on the Crimean bridge.
The prosecutor's office noted that the investigation was terminated because there was no initial suspicion to warrant an investigation.
It specified that there was no evidence of willful actions on the part of the person in question. Negligence may be relevant to disciplinary measures, but is not punishable as negligence, writes Business Insider.
