Brandanschlag vor 56 Jahren: Anschlag auf jüdisches Heim – „Antisemit mit Hitler-Tick“
Jahrzehnte war der Brandanschlag auf ein jüdisches Altenheim in München 1970 ungeklärt. Nun legen sich die Behörden auf einen Verdächtigen fest: ein glühender Antisemit, der von Hitler fasziniert war.
Seventy-six years prior, a terrorist attack claimed the lives of seven individuals in a Jewish home in Munich. Recently, the General Public Prosecutor's Office in Munich has identified a suspect – a man with known extreme right-wing and anti-Semitic views who passed away in 2020. This marks the first time such a suspect has been identified for a case of this nature, which the prosecutor regards as one of the most severe attacks on Jewish life since World War II.
Oberstaatsanwalt Andreas Franck, the Antisemitismusbeauftragter of the Bavarian Justice Ministry, described the case as "a wound in the Jewish soul" and also in the German soul. The investigation has not found any additional suspects.
