German AfD lawmaker faces criminal complaint over alleged Nazi salute

Berlin prosecutors have filed a criminal complaint against Alternative for Germany (AfD) lawmaker Matthias Moosdorf for allegedly performing a Nazi salute. The offense, involving symbols of unconstitutional organizations, carries a potential three-year prison sentence.

A criminal complaint has been lodged against far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) politician Matthias Moosdorf for allegedly giving a Nazi salute, the Berlin Prosecutor's Office announced on Monday. The complaint accuses the 60-year-old federal lawmaker of using symbols of "unconstitutional organizations," an act punishable by up to three years imprisonment under German law.

Details of the Alleged Incident

The alleged incident occurred on June 22, 2023, in a cloakroom area of the Bundestag, Germany's parliament, where Moosdorf is accused of greeting a fellow party member with the gesture historically known as the "Hitler salute." The Bundestag voted in October to lift Moosdorf's parliamentary immunity, along with that of another AfD legislator, Stefan Brandner, clearing the way for potential legal proceedings over the alleged salute and separate accusations of insulting a journalist.

Political Context and Profile

Moosdorf, who represents the eastern state of Saxony, has previously drawn criticism for his pro-Russian views and holds an honorary professorship at Moscow's Gnessin Russian Academy of Music. The case against him highlights ongoing tensions and legal scrutiny surrounding the rhetoric and symbolism used by Germany's far-right political factions, which authorities actively monitor for actions deemed to undermine the country's democratic order.
