The Würzburg public prosecutor’s office is currently investigating the Bavarian AfD member of the state parliament, Daniel Halemba, for incitement to hatred. Now the young politician is also a topic on the federal executive board.
The sedition and other allegations against the Bavarian AfD state parliament member Daniel Halemba is now also busy with the party’s federal leadership. According to a spokesman on Thursday, the federal executive board wants to deal with the case at a meeting next Monday evening. According to the “Main-Post”, this is also about possible violations of AfD regulations, which Halemba is accused of as the Würzburg AfD district chairman. The AfD is monitored as an entire party by the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution in Bavaria.
The federal executive board “routinely” requested statements from the AfD state executive board of Bavaria, the AfD district executive committee of Lower Franconia, the state executive committee of Junge Alternative and from one of the affected members “in order to be able to rule out any violations of the party’s rules in this matter,” said the speaker with. The “Main-Post” had previously reported on it. These comments have been received in full and are now being evaluated. “Part of this evaluation will also be the allegations or investigations against an affected member of our party.”
The Würzburg public prosecutor’s office is investigating Halemba for incitement to hatred and the use of symbols of anti-constitutional organizations. The student, who most recently lived in Würzburg, rejects the allegations. In the meantime, Halemba had been arrested on the basis of an arrest warrant from the Würzburg district court. The arrest warrant was then suspended subject to certain conditions: reporting requirements and a ban on contact with other suspects. These include members of the “Brschenschaft Teutonia Prag zu Würzburg”, to which Halemba himself belongs.
