German porn star Natalie Hot will appear in court on Wednesday to defend her right to work as a 'webcam girl', stripping and performing for erotic chat rooms.

The trial will revolve around the question of whether stripping on camera qualifies as "working from home".

The 24-year-old, who is well-known in Germany with more than 6,000 'likes' on her official fan page, works from her detached house in Ampfing, Bavaria. The town is home to 6,000 residents, several of whom have lodged legal complaints over their neighbour's chosen profession.

Hot is challenging a decision by local authorities that prevented her from undressing on camera, threatening a penalty of €2,000 if she doesn't adhere to the ban.

Their reasoning is that her house is in a specific land-use area, which does not allow for commercial use - in fact, the room Hot uses for her work is intended as a children's bedroom.

Complaints made by neighbours also included claims that Hot was too noisy, and that their children were being mocked at school for living near a porn star.

"Some people will always complain for some reason," said Hot, who does not want her real name made public.

"Light pollution, I'm too loud, the children can't sleep - that kind of thing."

Berlin- Teenagers killed by train while on tracks spraying graffiti

Two young men, 18 and 19, were run over and killed by a train around midnight Sunday night in Berlin.

Police reported on Monday that the accident occurred on the S1 line between the stations Wittenau and Wilhelmsruh.

 

Police believe the two were on a section of the S-Bahn rails on a bridge when a train heading in the direction of Wannsee drove through and rolled over them.

 

The train driver told police that he heard a rumbling sound, and then stopped the train. He then found the two young men, already dead, after he got out of the train to figure out what had caused the noise.

 

Fresh graffiti was found in the area of the bridge where the teens had been, as well as several cans of paint and a backpack containing other graffiti paraphernalia.

 

According to Tagesspiegel, the victims were from Berlin and were already known to police as graffiti painters, as well as for other crimes.

 

A police helicopter was called to the spot in order to light up the scene while the bodies of the two were removed by the fire services.

 

The train was able to travel on from the scene of the incident after two hours. However, the 50 passengers on board the S1 train had to remain inside the carriage for the two hours while the bodies were being removed because it was too risky to have them exit out of the train and across the tracks in the dark.

Missing Swiss cat turns up 600km away in Germany

A family's much-loved cat who went missing from her home in the north-eastern Swiss city of St Gallen more than a year ago has been found 600 kilometres away in Bonn, Germany.

According to daily 20 Minuten, the 15-year-old moggy, called Sissi, disappeared from her home at the end of August 2015.

The cat’s distressed family looked everywhere for Sissi – who is deaf – but, as winter approached, finally gave up hope.

“It was very difficult for us. Tears flowed,” owner Julika Fitzi told the paper.

So she was amazed when she was contacted by a cat refuge in Bonn to say they had found Sissi in the German city and identified her by her microchip.

Refuge worker Susanne Wanniger told Germany’s Express paper on Thursday that the cat was found by a resident in the city centre of Bonn in a dire state – covered in fleas and very thin.

While no one knows how Sissi managed to travel the 600km to Bonn, Fitzi thinks she probably got into a vehicle by mistake and was accidentally driven there.

It takes around six hours to drive between the two cities.

Loyal dog mounts vigil at hospital doors for sick owner

Maya was finally reunited with her owner after waiting patiently for six days at the doors of a hospital in Alicante.

Sandra Iniesta, 22, was discharged from Elda hospital near Alicante on Saturday where she rushed a week earlier after suffering a ruptured appendix.

Waiting loyally for her at the door of the hospital was Maya, a two-year-old Akita Inu, who had steadfastedly refused to leave her vigil while her owner was recovering.

Even when her owner’s father attempted to pull her away tempting her into the car with offers of treats, the dog refused to budge.

“She knows what is happening and she is showing that she can be patient,” he explained to local Alicante newspaper Información of Maya, whose Japanese breed is famous for its loyalty.

She quickly became a favourite with hospital staff who posted a photograph of Maya on their facebook page and the story soon went viral on social media.

Iniesta emerged from the hospital on Saturday to discover her beloved dog had become a celebrity.

“She just did what she does at home in Barcelona which is wait at the door of a place until I return,” explained Iniesta.

"After days of not seeing my girl Maya, the kiss and happiness at seeing me and me her is priceless," she wrote on Twitter
