Protests Against Habeck's Ferry Blockade Lead to Single Investigation

German authorities drop most cases linked to farmers' demonstration over subsidy cuts, citing lack of evidence and poor video quality.

A year after farmers protested against Robert Habeck at the Schlüttsiel ferry dock, only one person remains under investigation for resisting police orders.
The protest, involving 250–300 demonstrators, forced Habeck's ferry to turn back, delaying his return to the mainland by several hours.
The farmers were protesting planned cuts to agricultural subsidies announced by the government.
Authorities cited poor-quality video footage and a lack of recorded personal details as reasons for dropping most investigations.
Habeck, who considered leaving politics after the incident, has not filed any complaints regarding the demonstration.
