What this proves. That as of 5 November 2021 the Swiss criminal record contained no entry for Andreas Ludwig Kalker. The document carries a qualified electronic signature and a timestamp, and its authenticity can be checked athe address printed on it using the document ID.
What it does not prove — and this stated so that no critican say it was hidden. A Swiss extract covers the Swiss register. It does not certify the absence oforeign convictions, and convictions abroad arentered in the Swiss register only under specified conditions. To close the claim completely, extracts from Spain and Germany arequired. They are requested in the data pland will be published here when obtained.
Personal data. Thextract contains the holder's date of birth and address. It is published by his own decision, because a certificate of this kind cannot be anonymised and remain a certificate.
«Convicted» is the single most damaging claim in circulation, and the one most often repeated without a source. A negative criminal record extract is an administrative document, cheap tobtain, and it converts the accusation from a matter of opinion into a matter of record. Where a claim of conviction is made about a specificountry, that country's extract is what answers it — not a denial, and nothis page.
