Right -wing extremist Liebich: No prison sentence after assault!

Leipzig, Deutschland - After Marla-Svenja Liebich, a well-known personality in the right-wing extremist scene, was involved in a discussion in a demonstration against the Corona measures, the Leipzig district court temporarily stopped the procedure against you. Unlike originally expected, it does not have to be detained, which rejects the public discussion about the legal consequences of such demos. Liebich was charged with three co -accused due to dangerous bodily harm, but which the court did not provide any requirements. This is reported by the website lto.de .

Recently Liebich was sentenced by the Higher Regional Court of Naumburg for incitement and bad recovery to a prison sentence of one year and six months. In the current case, in 2023 it was sentenced to seven months of imprisonment by the Leipzig District Court because of the same act. Her co -accused received probation penalties and have appealed. The incidents that occurred on November 7, 2020 during the demonstration were described as confusing and dynamic, which influenced the judgment of the court.

background of the demonstration

The demonstration in which the incidents came about was part of a series of transverse thinking events that have been taking place in Germany since the beginning of Corona pandemic. These movements attract a wide range of participants, from concerned citizens to extremely right activists. According to reports, the assemblies under the term * transverse thinking * were often shaped by conspiracy stories that gained importance during pandemic. Many participants criticized the state measures to contain the covid 19 pandemic and experienced a feeling of belonging within these groups.

Reporting on cross-thinking demonstrations shows that these protests in several cities, including Leipzig, take place regularly and that they often offer a forum for extremely rights. The term "lateral thinker" itself reflects an attitude that propagates distrust against established politics and spreads various, sometimes contradictory conspiracy theories. As the Federal Center for Political Education ( bpb.de ), this also leads to radicalization within the Pandemieleugner scene.

attention and critical voices

The overall social digitization and the handling of pandemic have offered the right -wing extremist movements a platform that allows it to spread their views unhindered. While the number of participants in the transverse thinking demonstrations has dropped in Berlin since the big protests in August 2020, the topic remains up to date. Experts warn of the increasing calls for violence in this context, which is underlined by the multitude of violent incidents under Pandemieleugen.

The Liebich case shows an example of how fragile the balance between the rule of law and the charged emotions is during such events. According to experts, future acts of violence cannot be ruled out, which continues to complicate the Situation and the need for a differentiated and yet consistent view of the topic.
