Investigations: Search at employee of AfD top candidate
A few days before the election in Berlin, the police arrive at an AfD employee's home. It's about illegal weapons. They are not found - but other things.
The Berlin apartment of an aide to AfD top candidate Kristin Brinker was searched five days before the Berlin state election. The search, which took place on September 15 in Berlin-Lichterfelde, was carried out on suspicion of violating the Explosives Act and the Weapons Act. According to the prosecutor's office, no evidence was found to support the allegations, but other items were seized and are being investigated. The aide, a 48-year-old man, was also found to have drugs and Nazi memorabilia, according to press reports.
