N'deye Mareame Sarr (or Farr) was a German citizen of Senegalese background who was shot dead by a police officer in the town of Aschaffenburg in 2001.
Her killing was announced by the police as an act of self-defence, whereas black German organizations saw it as murder.
On 14 July 2001, N'deye Mareame Sarr went to her ex-husband's house in Aschaffenburg to look for the two year old child they were bringing up together.
The groups also questioned why Sarr's mother was not permitted to see the corpse and why the police officer who killed her had not been suspended.
[1][2] Jungle World newspaper suggested that Sarr died because the police were using newly introduced Polizei-Einsatz-Patrone (PEP) bullets which were designed to cause maximum damage to the person who was shot.
