In Berlin, the police investigated for a suspected racist attack on a member of the Bundeswehr. The 25-year-old with Turkish roots had stated to have been attacked in the district Neukölln in uniform. The Attorney General Berlin has now closed the proceedings - and suspects the corporal committed an offense.
Even through extensive investigation contradictions in the information of the soldier could not be explained, said the prosecution. "There is a suspicion that the attack has been faked." Therefore, now a lawsuit against the soldier has been initiated.
The alleged attack had caused a great indignation in September. It was alleged that the man had been reproached that only Germans should wear the uniform of a soldier. The state protection at the state criminal police Berlin determined. Defense Minister Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer (CDU) also commented and said: "I condemn every attack on soldiers."
