The author admitted that this is true to some extent, but also wrote that for Germany, almost everything depends on the midterms.

Lawyer Markus Haintz wrote that Dr. Paul Brandenburg was arrested by the Federal Police at Berlin Airport on Wednesday, October 28, 2026, while he was returning his ten-year-old child to Berlin. Although Brandenburg is in Berlin several times a month for his child and both the police and the public prosecutor's office are aware of this, an arrest warrant was issued due to alleged flight risk. Brandenburg was presented to a detention judge and has since been in pretrial detention at the Moabit correctional facility. Haintz announced that he represents Brandenburg together with lawyer V. Dannenmaier. Both are working for his immediate release. If this does not succeed, according to Haintz’s assessment, a new arrest warrant could be issued, and Brandenburg may remain in custody for a few weeks until a further custody review or the main hearing. Brandenburg is accused in six cases of insulting Berlin's mayor, Kai Wegner: in four cases, it concerns insults under § 185 of the Criminal Code, for which Wegner has filed a criminal complaint; in two others, it involves defamation under § 188 paragraph 2, variant 2 of the Criminal Code. Haintz wrote that all the contested statements referred to drag queen Jurassica Parka, civil name Mario Olszinski. He described Parka as having been sentenced to ten months of probation for child pornography. Haintz noted that Parka had hosted the charity gala "Gemeinsambunt" at the Berlin Theater des Westens on July 14, 2025. The event against hate crime was organized, among others, by the Berlin Police, the Brandenburg Police Headquarters, the Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf District Office, and LSVD+. Parka stood on stage with police officers and was photographed, among others, with Deputy Police Chief Marco Langner. Haintz requested letters and financial support for Brandenburg's legal fees. He also announced that the "Freihafen 2026 Mallorca" conference will take place as planned. Brandenburg wishes to convey that participants should have fun and enjoy themselves. #Berlin #Rechtssystem #Justiz (translated)

Markus Haintz announced that "Der Westen" has issued a cease-and-desist letter. This is the third statement in connection with the AfD email leak, following those from Dara Sasmaz and Dario Schramm. The contribution from the news portal had already been deleted a few days earlier. According to Haintz, "Der Westen" had disseminated excerpts from a fake email that contained defamatory false claims about his client. The rules for reporting suspicion were not adhered to; in particular, the portal did not consult his client before publication. #AfD #FakeNews #Unterlassungserklärung (translated)
