Halemba, a Bavarian MP from the AfD party, faces charges for inciting the public.
Halemba has been serving in Bavaria's state parliament since October 2023. However, her parliamentary immunity was removed in October due to probes from the public prosecutor's office concerning accusations of stirring up hatred and using insignias of unlawful groups.
Prior to the general assembly of the state parliament, Halemba was momentarily detained. In May, the national executive board of the AfD suggested a removal process against him. The determination of whether this procedure will be initiated and the outcome is dependent on the Bavarian court of the party.
