German prosecutors are investigating an elite military unit over allegations that it held a party where far-right activities took place, including Nazi salutes, the tossing of a pig’s head and listening to far-right rock music.
They are probing the country’s Special Force Commando, or KSK, its elite unit of military personnel, a spokesperson for prosecutors in the German city of Tübingen told German news site Deutsche-Welle. “We are examining the incident,” Nicolaus Wegele said.
The claims stem from investigations by several German radio stations, including NDR, ZDF and ARD.
It reportedly took place at an April farewell party for one of the unit’s lieutenants at a shooting range near the southwest city of Stuttgart.
