HIV Positive German Pop Star’s Trial Begins

A singer in a girl band is facing the threat of a long jail term for having unprotected sex with several men without telling them she was HIV positive.

Nadja Benaissa appeared in court yesterday charged with grievous bodily harm for allegedly infecting one of her lovers with the virus. Nadja Benaissa

The 28-year-old has also been charged with attempted aggravated assault for allegedly having unprotected sex with two other men who did not contract HIV.

Benaissa, who is a member of Germany’s most successful girl band, No Angels, and has performed in the Eurovision Song Contest, denies infecting anyone deliberately.

But she told the District Court of Darmstadt she was

careless during those days’ and admitted she did not tell her sexual partners about her condition, adding tearfully: ‘I am sorry with all my heart.’

A 34-year-old former lover, who is now HIV positive, claimed the singer’s management tried to buy his silence after he became infected.

Ha! This is some straight bull! putting someone on trial for alleged infected someone with HIV…. I can’t!
