The Sworn Affirmation

I, Jens Billerbeck, born 22 April 1960, [address], hereby state
under oath, whereby I am aware of the liability of a false sworn
affirmation, and submit that which follows to the court:
In Fall 1996, Antje E. Victore, who I, as a Scientologist, knew very well at the time, asked me to compose a letter from my own company. In it the impression was supposed to be given that she had put in an application with my company and that I was refusing her based on her membership in Scientology. In fact Antje E.
Victore had never applied with my company.
Antje E. Victore stated to me that she needed such a letter so that her asylum application at an immigration court in Florida, USA, which had initially been refused would then be granted. She was very proud that this operation was being worked out personally with her by an OSA (Scientology intelligence service) attorney and Kurt Weiland, OSA chief at the time.
On 10 Oct. 1996 she faxed me a letter which a person I knew to be a Scientologist from Germany had sent her as a sample for the one I was to write. She told me not to use the same dates in my letter as the one she faxed me had so that it would not be conspicuous and would be credible. So as a favor to a fellow Scientologist, I authored a letter and sent it to her in Florida, USA.
When her asylum application was granted in February 1997, Antje E. Victore sent me a commendation letter typical for Scientologists in which she thanked me for my support.
A few days after the asylum court's decision we also talked to each other on the phone. Antje E. Victore reported to me that she had won. But she explicitly asked me not to tell this to a third person since it was not allowed to be known in any case. The victory in court was to be published later at a suitable opportunity by the (Scientology) Church itself. She said that had been the express wish of OSA. Until then it had to remain secret and I was not even allowed to know it.
