Mainz. In the case of the “United Patriots”, who are said to have planned, among other things, to kidnap Health Minister Karl Lauterbach, we reported , there are new details about the two main suspects. According to research by the ARD political magazine “Report Mainz”, one of them openly confessed to plans for a coup more than a year ago. It's about Sven B., the suspect from Falkensee in Brandenburg.
Supporter of the National Liberation Movement of Russia
At a demonstration against the Corona measures in Kassel in March 2021, B. said in front of the camera: “We want to get rid of this system”. The interview is available exclusively to the ARD political magazine “Report Mainz”. On his chest that day, B. wore the so-called St. George ribbon and an orange and black striped flag. Both are symbols of the Russian National Liberation Movement. According to the journalist and right-wing extremism expert Andrea Röpke, behind the self-proclaimed movement there is a “Putin fan club that wants to cause unrest in Europe”. The group is also close to the ideas of the Reich Citizens' Movement. The German branch of the National Liberation Movement rejects the allegations to “Report Mainz”.
Second main suspect: Corona deniers and conspiracy theorists
Sven B. is one of the five-member core group of the “United Patriots”, which is said to have planned, among other things, plans for a coup and the kidnapping of Federal Health Minister Lauterbach. In his house in Falkensee, Brandenburg, investigators found, among other things, a Kalashnikov about two weeks ago. B. is said to have been one of the group's key planners and organizers, as was Thomas O. from Neustadt an der Weinstrasse in Rhineland-Palatinate. According to research by “Report Mainz”, O. has been active in numerous Telegram groups for around two years about protests against Corona policy. He compared the measures to a dictatorship and the pandemic was a declaration of war. O. also spread conspiracy theories in the chats.
Haldenwang: “Hate of state institutions”
Since the pandemic, the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution has observed more and more frequently that Reich citizens, opponents of Corona policy and supporters of conspiracy theories, among others, are networking. These scenes also wanted to act together, said Federal Office for the Protection President Thomas Haldenwang in an interview with “Report Mainz”. What unites these groups is a deep disenchantment with the state. “In some cases I would say a hatred of state institutions,” said Haldenwang. He expects that there will continue to be subject areas in which such groups could come together and radicalize. About two weeks ago, investigators dismantled the “United Patriots” in a nationwide coordinated operation. Five men are said to belong to the core group, four of whom are in custody. The group is said to have networked via Telegram.
