He is accused of having provided a friend of the violent neo-Nazi group "Aryan" with data. This became known in a lawsuit against two Hessian "Aryans" members who started in Halle in Saxony-Anhalt.
According to the SZ report, the "Aryan's" member Martina H. is said to have turned over her cell phone to the officials from East Hesse. Accordingly, she is said to have asked him twice to retrieve data from the internal police information system. The policeman apparently responded to the request - so the state of the investigation.
