In Berlin, police conducted a raid on the home of Jürgen Sch., a staffer for Alternative for Germany (AfD) candidate Kristin Brinker. While the search was initially authorized due to suspicions of illegal weapons possession, no firearms were found.

Investigators instead seized drugs and materials related to National Socialism. The Berlin Public Prosecutor's Office is performing forensic examinations to determine if the seizure of these items warrants criminal charges regarding the use of symbols of unconstitutional organizations.
