Berlin Police Officer Fined for Leaking Confidential Information Amid Right-Wing Attacks in NeuköllnA Berlin police officer has been handed a financial penalty after being found guilty of disclosing confidential police information in the context of a series of right-wing extremist attacks in the Neukölln district. The investigation revealed that Norbert M., who was responsible for supporting victims of right-wing attacks, had sent sensitive police details to an acquaintance, Jennifer G., on multiple occasions. The court sentenced M. to a fine based on 90 daily rates of 120 euros each. The judge emphasized that while M.'s actions compromised the integrity of police operations and public trust, there was no substantiated connection between the officer's actions and the right-wing extremist groups that had carried out the attacks in Neukölln. The Neukölln attacks remain a major focus of both law enforcement and political scrutiny, with efforts underway to improve cooperation between authorities and communities affected by right-wing violence.
