Björn Höcke Faces Additional Charge for Using Nazi Slogan

The far-right German politician is now charged with a second count of using an SA slogan, with his trial set to include this new allegation.

Björn Höcke, a leading figure in Germany's far-right Alternative for Germany party, has been charged with a second count of using a Nazi slogan.
The charge relates to an event in December last year, where Höcke allegedly encouraged the audience to complete the phrase 'Everything for Germany!', known as an SA slogan.
Höcke is already scheduled to go on trial on April 18, with prosecutors seeking to add the new charge to the proceedings.
The Thuringia branch of Alternative for Germany, led by Höcke, is viewed by Germany's domestic intelligence as a 'proven right-wing extremist' group.
Höcke has previously faced criticism for his remarks on the Holocaust memorial in Berlin, which he called a 'monument of shame'.
