After the dissolution of the Frankfurt SEK on suspicion of right-wing extremist chat groups, Interior Minister Peter Beuth (CDU) and the special investigator Stefan Müller announced the first steps in realigning the special unit on Monday.

According to this, the officials against whom there is no investigation should be subordinated to the Hessian riot police in Mainz-Kastel.

From there, "with a new management philosophy" and in a new environment, "a new unit should be formed in which the highest professional and ethical standards must apply," said Beuth.

He emphasized that the group of experts that had now been set up was “working hard on the obvious brutalization” in parts of the SEK Frankfurt.

    Special investigator Müller said: “Anyone who has done nothing should be able to go back to work. But the framework has to be different. ”Members of the expert commission who deal with the cases in the SEK were almost shocked by the design of the offices in the Frankfurt police headquarters. The SEK rooms are considered "not suitable" to accommodate the remaining officers there, they said on Monday. According to an initial assessment, the presentation is not criminally relevant. The "flaunted corps spirit" is not conducive to a new beginning ".
