Violations of Property During Election Campaigns
In a joint statement, Mayor Frank Stein and Election Officer Ragnar Migenda have strongly condemned acts of defamation and undemocratic behaviour during the election campaign in Bergisch Gladbach. The condemnation follows reports of attacks on several political parties, including the SPD, Alliance 90/The Greens, CDU, and AfD.
On August 31, 2025, a press release No. 254 was issued, detailing attacks on the SPD and Alliance 90/The Greens. However, no new information about the nature, location, timing, or source of the attacks on the CDU and AfD was provided.
The attacks on these parties are reported incidents and not confirmed investigations. The specific names from the CDU and AfD that have been affected by similar Nazi graffiti attacks alongside SPD and Alliance 90/The Greens are not explicitly mentioned. However, it is noted that both CDU and AfD have been targets of antifascist demonstrations and attacks in general contexts related to far-right opposition.
The Mayor and Election Officer have stated that such behaviour will not be tolerated. They have urged everyone to adhere to the common democratic rules and emphasized the importance of respectful interaction for good societal coexistence. No new information about any response or action taken by the authorities regarding these attacks was provided in the statement.
The attacks on the SPD, Alliance 90/The Greens, CDU, and AfD are considered to be of a similar nature. The attacks on the CDU and AfD involve Nazi graffiti. The CDU and AfD political parties have reported similar attacks, but the location of these attacks on the CDU and AfD is not specified in the provided information.
Mayor Stein and Election Officer Migenda have made it clear that these acts do not reflect the values of Bergisch Gladbach. They have urged all citizens to work towards a peaceful and fair election campaign, upholding the democratic principles that the city stands for.
