Joachim Maedler

Joachim Maedler, a former spot FX dealer at BHF Frankfurt, was tragically killed this week. Maedler, 40, is said to have left BHF a couple of year ago and set up a natural food shop in Gettenbach, a village around 45 kilometres east of Frankfurt. On Tuesday he won a court case against his neighbour over a dispute concerning parking rights. After the case, German media reports his neighbour followed him back to Gettenbach. When they arrived in their street, the neighbour walked up to Maedler’s car and shot him several times before fleeing. The neighbour gave himself up to police several hours later.
