attempt at clarification

: The trial against Alexander M., the man who is said to be behind the series of threatening letters "NSU 2.0", begins on Wednesday.

He is accused of having written a total of 116 threatening letters and sent them via encrypted channels to public figures, including the lawyer Seda Basay-Yildiz and the left-wing politician Janine Wissler.

The police and prosecutors are convinced that Alexander M. acted alone.

The burden of proof against the accused is high after they finally got hold of him via traces on the internet and were able to save text fragments on his computer.

Spicy: A letter containing racist insults and detailed fantasies of violence reached the lawyer Basay-Yildiz 90 minutes after the query had taken place in the police computer system of the first district in Frankfurt,

with which the data for the threatening letter was collected.

And at that point, an officer was logged in, on whose cell phone a right-wing extremist chat group was later discovered.

Whether there is a connection, which is not officially accepted, but some suspect: the trial before the Frankfurt district court may also clarify that.

Katharina Iskandar summarizes what is up for negotiation in the Rhein-Main-Zeitung.

Traffic problems

: During the day, Frankfurt is a city of millions.

In the evening, when the commuters are at home, it isn't anymore.

Because most commuters come by car, because demands for a reduction in car traffic are getting louder in Frankfurt, but also because there are protests against it, politicians are faced with special challenges.

How do other major German cities deal with the issue of traffic and the sometimes heated discussions about turning or not turning, what is happening there?

The FAZ lets its correspondents have their say in the Rhein-Main-Zeitung.

Rüdiger Soldt, who reports on Stuttgart, starts things off.

Music

: The orchestra sits on the stage and acts according to the instructions and ideas of the conductor: Not with the young musicians of the Berlin impromptu orchestra, which consists of 30 classically trained people who play together in varying degrees.

The impromptu orchestra loves to improvise and always creates new musical experiences during its performances, for the audience and also for itself.

In Frankfurt guest appearances usually take place in the Alte Oper.

On Wednesday the orchestra will be in town again, but this time it will be playing in the Batschkapp.

Who is interested: Guido Holze writes what he could expect.

And

the hospitalization incidence in Hesse has also fallen slightly, to 6.96 on Sunday after 7.26 on Saturday +++ the world's brightest source for generating X-rays in a laboratory will be used at the University of Kassel in the future, the behavior of materials such as Metal and plastic can thus be analyzed more precisely than before +++ According to the Federal Ministry of Transport, there is a lack of almost 30,000 parking spaces for trucks in Germany and 3000 in Hesse alone, on motorways for example.

Kind regards, stay with us
