Reich citizen in Löcknitz: Convised weapon car defends himself against judgment

Löcknitz, Deutschland - In the past few weeks, a judgment against a self -proclaimed imperial citizen from Löcknitz ensures excitement. Dirk B. was sentenced to three years and ten months in prison at the beginning of July after he had violated the Weapons Act. This is reported by the Nordkurier . The 56-year-old, who is considered "dangerous" in his home community and has been monitored by the authorities for years, has already appealed against the judgment because he does not recognize the jurisdiction of the court.

The allegations against him are serious: he was condemned because of the unauthorized acquisition of weapons of war and the handling of explosive substances, as well as for threats a bailiff who has anxiety in this experience that affects his family. When his real estate searches in 2020, only two weapons and almost 6000 rounds of ammunition were found, but Dirk B. acquired a total of 37 so -called "demilitarized weapons" from the Internet.

a controversial displacement of the state order

The Reich Citizens' Movement, which belongs to Dirk B., is now perceived as a serious threat to public security. In particular, an incident in which a police officer killed contributed to this changed assessment. This movement attracts various right -wing extremists and conspiracy theoretical views. Many of its supporters do not recognize the Federal Republic of Germany as a legitimate state and claim that the Basic Law is only a continuation of the "German Empire", such as the Federal Center explained.

Dirk B. led the "National Alliance Löcknitz", which had built a large event hall in a garage complex. The alliance is accused of propagating a dangerous ideology and even planning violent actions. The authorities closed the meeting point of the alliance to prevent possible terrorist plans.

prospects and legal framework conditions

The condemnation of Dirk B. has not yet been final. The convicted and his new election defender have the opportunity to make an appeal or revision, which the legal situation further complicated. Regardless of this, his case raises serious questions: What about the reliability of gun owners in the Reich Citizens' Movement? The Juracademy reports that people from this environment are often classified as unreliable, since they do not recognize essential foundations of the democratic order. One example would be a plaintiff from Berlin, whose gun ownership card was revoked due to its belonging to the Reich Citizens' scene.

Reporting on such cases makes it clear that the security authorities are on the upper aus, but continue to be major challenges. The Reich Citizens' Movement keeps society in suspense and leads to an unstable security situation. Therefore, it remains to be hoped that the judiciary will be going against such movements in the next few weeks and that society will protect against potential violence.
