German Parliament: Bundestag lifts immunity of SPD member Ahmetovic
Following the investigations against Steffen Krach, the top Berlin SPD candidate, the public prosecutor's office is now investigating further individuals. Ahmetovic's lawyer rejects the allegations.
The German parliament, Bundestag, has lifted the immunity of Adis Ahmetovic, a Social Democratic Party (SPD) member from Lower Saxony. The move allows for judicial searches to be approved, amid investigations by the Hanover public prosecutor's office. The probe is linked to one targeting Steffen Krach, a former president of the Hanover region, and Stefan Politze, ex-leader of the SPD faction in the Lower Saxony state parliament. Ahmetovic's lawyer stated that he has done nothing wrong and is cooperating with authorities.
