There was a weird thing in England that if you were found not guilty and released from prison, you'd have to pay the prison boarding costs because you had no right to be there in the first place
Same thing for Germany.
Someone is currently suing the Bavarian government for 750,000€ for 13 years of wrong imprisonment (he only received 400,000€ in damages, or 75€ per day).
Now the government is demanding 100,000€ back - 50,000€ for food and accomodation and 50,000€ for the total wage he received from mandatory prison labor.
They're suing his WAGE back for work he still did???
It's not like he had any rights to do his mandatory 2€-per-hour job. Completely understandable /s
