Magdeburg Police Probe Alleged Racist Chants at Police College Party

Investigators say reviewed footage has not produced a specific criminal suspicion.

Overview

  • A witness reported racist slogans during Gigi D'Agostino's "L’amour toujours" at a Sept. 18 celebration at the Aschersleben police university, described by police as a private police union event.
  • The Central Criminal Investigation Department of the Magdeburg police is leading the investigation.
  • Several witness interviews have been conducted, yet no concrete suspects have been identified.
  • Reviewed video material has not established a specific criminal suspicion, and the investigation is ongoing.
  • Police noted that Bild reported the Aschersleben case earlier, which aligns with a wider pattern of similar incidents linked to the song, including a viral 2024 video from Sylt.
