In Lithuania, Rammstein frontman Till Lindemann is apparently not threatened with an investigation. This is said to have been confirmed by the Lithuanian police.
After a woman made allegations against the band after a Rammstein concert in the Lithuanian capital Vilnius, the local police now apparently gave an update. As the authorities claim to have found out, no preliminary proceedings against Till Lindemann (60) will be initiated in Lithuania. This coincides with .
The justification for this decision is therefore “that there are no statements on the facts”. Corresponding documents from the Northern Irish police have not yet been submitted. The alleged victim, a woman from Northern Ireland, posted pictures of bruises on her hip on Instagram after the concert. According to her statement, the injuries occurred at a backstage party of the band.
Band responded to allegations
According to the concert visitor in Lithuania, numerous other women had reported on social networks and made serious allegations against Lindemann. About a week ago, the band released , which says, among other things: “The releases of the last few days have caused irritation and questions among the public and especially among our fans. The allegations have all hit us very hard and we take them extremely seriously .”
The six musicians don’t want any “public prejudice” – in either direction. “We condemn any kind of transgression and ask you: Do not engage in public prejudice of any kind against those who have made allegations. They have a right to their point of view,” the post reads.
But the band demands this not only for the women who raise the allegations, but also for themselves: “But we, the band, also have a right – namely not to be prejudiced either.”
