“German weapons, German money are joining in murder all over the world,” the (German) Left likes to put in a rhyme at the right time. As touching murders in Germany, such accounts can be demonstrably seen: RAF murders in the West, dead from the Wall, from tortures, from executions in East Germany. Now, in a case under the trading sign XY, a functionary of the Left party is unmasked as the weapons dealer in an actual murder case.
Die Rheinische Post reports:
The Mönchengladbach District Attorney’s Office offered for help from the viewers. A key to understanding was the discovery of the murder weapon. The machine gun was delivered by Manfred Hämmerle , according to statements by the investigators. The man is fraction president of the Left Party in Hückelhoven. “He is charged with the procurement of several illegal arms,” the district attorney stated.
“At the beginning of the year we were informed by the criminal police that an investigation of Manfred Hämmerle was underway,” Bernd Jansen, the mayor of Hückelhoven, confirmed yesteray. According to the district attorney, the politician committed an offense against the war weapons law. However, he is not suspected of murder.
The Chief of the Left Party fraction in the regional assembly, Wolfgang Zimmer, looked surprised. As in any investigational procedure, innocence has been presumed here also. But should it happen that the charges stick against Hämmerle is hard for him to imagine “that he could remain a member of our party. The Left is a party of peace. Members involved in weapons trading have no place with us.”
Peter Biesenbach, internal expert for the CDU fraction of the regional assembly, stated that the case demonstrates thath the “Left Party is a collection basket for extremists.” The party “grew too quickly.” Apparently the party leadership is not in the position to stop questionable members from occupying office. Arndt Klocke, head of the Green fraction in the regional assembly said in contrast, that it was “nonchalant” to project the shortcomings of members upon the party and thereby carry on with “cheap political propaganda.”
The left-wing politicians and the murder victim were apparently friends and took motorbike tours together. According to the investigations, the weapon was in possession of the victim before the act. Hämmerle supposedly procured the machine gun. The ophthalmologist supposedly attempted to sell the weapon to an Albanian. The weapons business could itself be the motive for the murder.
