The German aid organization Sea-Eye has filed a criminal complaint with the police against AfD politician Georg Pazderski in the Regensburg police. The occasion was a message from the Berlin politician on the online service Facebook, the Regensburg-based organization announced on Saturday night.
In a press release, the aid organization stated that the right-wing Berlin populist had spread the idea that the crew of the “Alan Kurdi” could be partly responsible for the deaths of the terrorist victims in Nice. In his statement on Facebook he referred to the “investigation” and posted a picture with the headline “German ‘Alan Kurdi’ brought killers from Nice to Europe” without naming specific sources for his claim.
According to Sea-Eye, the far-right news portal Journalistenwatch had previously reported on the connections between a rescue mission of “Alan Kurdi” and the terrorist attack in Nice. Pazderski spreads “the falsehood to abuse people’s pain and dismay and incite them against maritime rescuers,” said Gorden Isler, president of Sea-Eye.
Accusations and insults have been on the rise since the Facebook post.
The Nice killer did not arrive in France aboard the “Alan Kurdi,” Sea-Eye said. However, since Pazderski’s statement on Facebook, the club has received more accusations, insults and serious accusations. “Here a right-wing populist is trying in the most shameful way to exploit the suffering of the victims and their families, as well as the people’s concern for their own political agenda,” criticized the Sea Eye board. “This attack must have consequences,” he demanded.
Since the association was founded in 2015, Sea-Eye has saved more than 15,000 lives. The organization defends life, human rights and civil commitment. “We were all terribly horrified by this terrorist attack and condemned it in the strongest possible way,” Isler said.
Third suspect captured
According to investigators, the alleged murderer in Nice is a 21-year-old Tunisian named Brahim Issaoui. According to the current state of the investigation, he only arrived in France a day or two before the event, he had arrived in the country through Italy. He first killed a man and a woman Thursday at the Notre-Dame basilica in Nice in southern France; an injured woman was able to flee to a bar, but died there from her injuries.
French police have arrested a third suspect after the alleged Islamist attack. The 33-year-old man was on Friday night during the search with another suspect in his apartment, he said Saturday from French judicial circles. “We are trying to clarify his role in the ensemble.”
There are now a total of three men at the research center. Police had previously arrested a 35-year-old man suspected of having been in contact with the alleged attacker the day before the attack. A 47-year-old man is also charged with this, he is also in custody.
