Two Hessian riot police officers, who are already being investigated for a drug offense, were in a Ludwigshafen apartment to produce music videos.
The two were found in the apartment along with 14 other people by Rhineland-Palatinate police colleagues in June this year after the officers reported screams and fighting noises from the apartment.
This was announced by a spokesman for the public prosecutor's office in Frankenthal on Wednesday when asked.
The “Frankfurter Rundschau” reported first.
suspected violation of the Narcotics Act
Two kilograms of a white substance were found in the apartment, the spokesman said.
A preliminary test showed that it was amphetamine.
In addition, according to the information, 925 grams of a substance were found that suggested the appearance and smell of marijuana.
Both substances are at the State Criminal Police Office of Rhineland-Palatinate for assessment.
It is still unclear what kind of acquaintance there is between the 14 people and the two riot police officers.
It is assumed that they were there as extras.
In addition, one of the officers is suspected of forging documents.
In the trunk of his car - a former patrol car of the Hessian police - there were four pairs of license plates.
There is a suspicion that the affixed state seal and the TÜV badge could be fake.
The relevant investigations are still ongoing.
Criminal proceedings are pending against the two Hessian police officers on suspicion of violating the Narcotics Act.
In addition, according to the Hessian riot police headquarters, disciplinary proceedings have been initiated.
However, the disciplinary investigations are suspended pending the completion of the criminal investigations.
