Former sports journalist and co-defendant Gerhard Delling (R) partner of defendant, German entrepreneur and gastronome Christina Block (not in picture), and his lawyer David Rieks (L) sit in the courtroom prior to the continuation of the trial over alleged child abduction at the Criminal Court in Hamburg, northern Germany, at the start of another trial session on October 28, 2026. The public prosecutor's office accuses Block, heiress of a steakhouse chain, of ordering the abduction of her daughter, born in 2010, and her son, born in 2013. According to the indictment, the background to this is an escalating custody dispute over many years between Block and her former husband, who have four children together.
