Investigations against committee members discontinued. Eight people were killed at a meeting of Jehovah's Witnesses in Hamburg in March 2023.
Three members of an audit committee working in the shooting club of the later perpetrator have been discontinued. The public prosecutor's office announced on Wednesday that the guilt of the three accused should be viewed as minor. Legal and official deficiencies in the implementation of the expertise test required to obtain a firearms license were also important in the decision to discontinue the investigations against the three members.
