AfD against the Office for the Protection of the Constitution: Court rejects adjournment. The Higher Administrative Court of North Rhine-Westphalia is supposed to decide whether the party can be observed by intelligence means.
The Federal Office (BfV), based in Cologne, had classified the party and the youth organization Junge Alternative (JA) as suspected right-wing extremist cases. The court has scheduled a second day of hearings for Wednesday. It was initially unclear when there would be a verdict.
