«Breaking News» Frank Magnitz, Germany's AfD party chairman ‘beaten nearly to death’

A far-right German MP has been seriously injured in a 'politically motivated' gang attack in the north of the country.

Frank Magnitz, leader in Bremen of the anti-immigration populist party Alternative for Germany (AfD), was assaulted in the city centre on Monday afternoon.

The AfD party published a photo of Magnitz lying injured on a hospital bed, claiming three masked men had hit the politician 'with a piece of wood' and fled the scene. 

Politicians across the political spectrum, including Chancellor Angela Merkel, have slammed the 'cowardly' attack.

Attacked: Far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) published photo of MP Frank Magnitz in hospital after allegedly being attacked by three men in Bremen, northwest Germany

'They hit him with a piece of wood until he was unconscious and then kicked him on the ground,' the party said in a statement, adding that a construction worker had intervened to stop the assault.

'Today is a dark day for democracy in Germany.'

Bremen Police said that 'given the victim's work, we believe that this is a politically motivated act.'

Chancellor Angela Merkel led cross-party condemnations of the assault, as her spokesman Steffen Seibert wrote on Twitter that the 'brutal attack' was 'to be condemned sharply'.

'Hopefully the police will succeed in catching the perpetrators quickly,' he wrote.

AfD leader Joerg Meuthen tweeted that Magnitz was 'beaten almost to death' in a 'cowardly and sickening' attack.

Johannes Kahrs, an MP from the Social Democrats, junior partners in the ruling coalition, said 'violence is never acceptable' and that 'extremism in any form is rubbish'. He wished Magnitz a quick recovery.

Anger: AfD representatives as well as opposition politicians have slammed the 'cowardly' attack on Mangitz, who is the local leader for the party in Bremen

Cem Ozdemir of the opposition Greens party said he hoped those responsible could be 'found and convicted soon' and that, even against a far-right party, 'nothing justifies violence'.

'Those who fight hate with hate only allow hate to win in the end,' said the politician of Turkish origin.

Last week, an explosive device detonated in a rubbish bin damaged an AfD office in Saxony. Three suspects were detained.

And last weekend in Lower Saxony, the home of a local AfD politician was targeted with graffiti and a party office was attacked with a paint bomb.

The AfD entered Germany's parliament with almost 13 per cent of the vote in September 2017, making it the strongest opposition party in the Bundestag lower house.

The party is expected to make gains in European elections in May and three regional polls in the former communist east later this year.

The AfD...

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
