Berlin Court Upholds Dismissal of AfD Politician from Police Service
The Berlin Administrative Court has ruled against an AfD politician’s application for police service, citing concerns over constitutional loyalty.
The court’s decision follows the withdrawal of a hiring promise after it was revealed that the individual was the AfD faction leader in a local council, raising doubts about his suitability.
This ruling aligns with the recent classification of the AfD as an extremist group by the Brandenburg Office for the Protection of the Constitution, which noted the party’s radicalization and connections to far-right elements.
