Bizarre action in Würzburg: The right-wing extremist party »The III. Weg «has reenacted the three candidates for chancellor with straw dolls lying on the floor and stained with artificial blood. The police let them go.


The right-wing extremist small party »Der III.

Weg «apparently not enough: On Saturday, members of the party again drew attention to themselves with an extreme action.

As reported by Bayerischer Rundfunk (BR), members of the party placed three straw dolls stained with fake blood in the city - just a few steps from the place where three people died in a fatal knife attack at the end of June.

The dolls lying on the floor, reminiscent of covered human corpses, were apparently intended to represent "victims" of the German refugee and immigration policy and stand for three personalities: A display next to the dolls showed pictures of the chancellor candidates from the CDU, SPD and Greens, with the inscription: "Nice and colorful here".

According to BR, around 300 people demonstrated against the action on Saturday.

Media reports show that the 20 or so members of the »III.

Weges «tried to drown the demonstrators by whistling, booing and screaming.

In the meantime, the responsible police in Lower Franconia let the right-wing extremists have their way: the action had been registered and examined by representatives of the public prosecutor's office and the legal department of the Lower Franconian police headquarters.

There is no criminal offense.

Last week, members of the splinter party had hung up posters in several Saxon locations that could be understood as a call to murder.

In the immediate vicinity of posters by the Greens, the right-wing extremist posters had the slogan "Hang the Greens".

A dispute broke out over the posters - the city of Zwickau wanted to remove them.

However, according to a court order, they are allowed to get stuck.

The administrative court in Chemnitz gave an urgent application of the »III.

Weges «- but under the condition that the posters must be 100 meters away from the posters of the Greens.

The Greens in Zwickau thereupon set an example against the »III.

Path".

During a campaign under the motto “Don't let democrats down”, members of the Saxon state association came to Zwickau to hang up campaigns for the Greens.

The aim of the poster campaign of the Greens was, according to the party, to make it to the »III.

Weg «impossible to keep the 100-meter distance.

The Green Association wanted to send 200 election posters to Zwickau at short notice.
