Overview
- Deputy mayor Kilian Körner of the Greens is fully handling municipal duties for roughly four weeks while Thomas Pardeller undergoes short-term therapeutic treatment.
- Police say about 0.2 grams of a white powder were found outside a Munich nightclub, and a laboratory analysis to confirm cocaine is still pending.
- Officers report he initially refused to hand over the packet, was brought to the ground, handcuffed and taken to a station, and unit K11 is investigating a narcotics offense.
- The CSU Ortsverband declares full support, maintains Pardeller’s mayoral nomination for the March 8, 2026 election, and characterizes the incident as a personal mistake.
- Pardeller apologizes, attributes his conduct to recent family bereavement and late-night partying, and says he plans to return to office after treatment.
