The user Gr@ntlɘr asked who is suing against the CDU in Saxony-Anhalt. He referred to former SPD minister Mathias Brodkorb, who according to him stated that § 106 of the Criminal Code threatens the coercion of members of parliament to refrain from exercising their mandate with up to five years of imprisonment. Whether a specific resolution is punishable must be decided by the public prosecutor's office. Gr@ntlɘr criticized the claim to prevent members of parliament from voting for their protection as an interference with the free mandate. According to him, anyone who does not trust their own faction at the ballot box should question their own political line, not the constitution. Whether a procedure is initiated also depends on whether someone formally asserts the initial suspicion; anyone is capable of doing so, he wrote. #CDU #SachsenAnhalt #freiesMandat (translated)
