Recently in Rhineland-Palatinate, a disturbing event took place at a festival near the Koblenz police headquarters. Some attendees began humming the tune of Gigi D'Agostino's popular song, "L'amour toujours," and then others proceeded to chant racist slurs. A spokesperson from Mainz's Ministry of Interior confirmed this on Friday. An investigation for incitement to hatred is underway, and a suspect has already been identified. This is the first known instance of such an incident in Rhineland-Palatinate.

A similar incident occurred a week ago at a Pentecost party in a bar on Sylt, where guests shouted "Foreigners out" and "Germany for the Germans" along with the song. The video of this incident caused a stir throughout the country. Ever since then, reports of similar occurrences have been pouring in.

Koblenz police shared details about this latest event, which took place at the end of an event in Grafschaft, within the Ahrweiler district.
