A police officer in Mölln has been making racist comments for years. Only after a report has been made to the anti-racism office will consequences be drawn.

Interior Minister Sabine Sütterlin-Waack (CDU) spoke of a leadership failure. The topic of right-wing extremism is dealt with intensively in the training of police officers and is also repeatedly discussed in further training courses, says the minister. The state police have consistently pursued any misconduct with a zero-tolerance line.
