Berlin (dpa) - In the Berlin preliminary investigation against the conspiracy narrator Attila Hildmann, more than 1000 statements are checked individually.

It is about suspicion of sedition, insults and threats.

"These are intensive, extensive and time-consuming investigations," said a spokeswoman for the prosecutor on Tuesday.

"The evaluation of the evidence continues."

The “Süddeutsche Zeitung” had previously reported that the gathering of evidence was making slow progress.

One of the hard drives is said to be so badly damaged that the data cannot be read, and another is apparently protected by a password so that investigators cannot open it.

Hildmann, who was previously known as a vegan cookbook author, calls himself “ultra right” and a conspiracy preacher.

The Brandenburg police initially secured Hildmann's evidence during a search of the apartment.

In December, a court order in Berlin obtained that the public prosecutor's office could evaluate several laptops, cell phones, memory cards and USB sticks.

“Evaluation has been carried out since the end of December,” said the spokeswoman.

The investigations were bundled in Berlin.

Justice Senator Dirk Behrendt (Greens) had justified this with effective criminal prosecution.

Several preliminary investigations from Brandenburg had therefore been handed over to the authorities in the capital.

Hildmann had repeatedly appeared in protests against the corona protective measures.

According to earlier information from the public prosecutor's office, it should be clarified whether and to what extent the 39-year-old could have exceeded the limits of freedom of expression and made himself liable to prosecution.
