A chat group of Hessian police officers is the focus of the Darmstadt public prosecutor’s office: right-wing extremist content is said to have been exchanged in the chat. For three officials, this has direct consequences.
Once again, a chat group of officials in which right-wing extremist content was exchanged has apparently been uncovered by the Hessian police. The public prosecutor’s office in Darmstadt is now investigating possible misconduct against several police officers. First, the “Frankfurter Rundschau” (“FR”) reported.
According to the public prosecutor’s office, the allegations of insult and bodily harm are at stake. The procedure is aimed at six people. According to the police headquarters in southern Hesse, evidence was secured and evaluated during searches at the accused. This included, among other things, a chat and various image files with a possible criminal background.
Police in Hesse: Officials call their own apartment “Wolfsschanze”
According to research by “FR”, one of the accused officials described his home address in the chat as “Wolfsschanze”. The term refers to the headquarters of Adolf Hitler during World War II. He also allowed himself to be photographed in offices with Hitler’s beard glued on, and he also circulated this picture.
According to “FR”, other allegations are also made against the police officers in question, including improper handling of weapons and ammunition and bullying. According to the police, four disciplinary proceedings were initiated against employees. As a result, three officials were relieved of their previous positions.
Chat groups by police officers had already caused trouble in Hesse in the past. Several cases had become known in which right-wing extremist, racist and sexist content had been exchanged.
