The public prosecutor’s office in Mühlhausen in Thuringia searched the house of AfD head of state Björn Höcke last November. However, it is not about the politician, but about an allegation against his underage family member.
A raid took place in Björn Höcke’s house in Bornhagen in Thuringia at the end of November 2022. This was confirmed by the responsible public prosecutor in Mühlhausen star. The search was not directed against the right-wing extremist head of state of the AfD, but against a minor family member. Chief Public Prosecutor Ulf Walther did not want to comment on the allegation for reasons of youth protection. But apparently it weighs so heavily that charges were brought against the Höcke offspring at the district court in Mühlhausen.
Björn Höcke monitored by the Office for the Protection of the Constitution
Höcke is state spokesman and faction leader of the AfD in Thuringia and is considered the secret leader of the entire party. The Office for the Protection of the Constitution classifies the politician as a right-wing extremist and has been monitoring him since 2020. The latest report by the Office for the Protection of the Constitution estimates that more than a third of the 28,500 AfD members have extremist potential.
