Forensic Pathologist Dr. Duhler 

Dr. Duhler comes from a middle-class, humanist family: his grandfather was a professor of philosophy, his father a surgeon. He is always immaculate: he wears a suit and a bow tie. Sometimes he is cynical and even prudish in his attitudes, but in his work he is precise and painstaking. When his professional activities are criticised he becomes highly argumentative. Kehler and Duhler have known each other for years, and there is real mutual understanding there. The impatient Bonhoff sometimes has bigger problems with Duhler.

The actor Klaus Schindler

His acting career took off at the end of the 1970s in the "Kabarett des Westens", and until 1986 he appeared onstage there almost every evening. His first success on the big screen was the 1990 feature film "Toto der Held". This was followed by numerous television films, including "Der Mörder und seine Frau", "Das doppelte Dreieck", "Der gerechte Richter" and "Das Mädchen Rosemarie". He has featured in the RTL series "In the Name of the Law" as a forensic pathologist since 1994. In addition he is a leading member of the permanent cast in the series "OP ruft Dr. Bruckner", "SOKO Leipzig" and "SOKO Wismar". In 2006 he featured in the TV two-part feature "Rose unter Dornen".
