The German Green Party is embroiled in controversy as allegations against Bundestag member Stefan Gelbhaar take a dramatic turn.
Initially accused of sexual misconduct, Gelbhaar faced calls to step down.
However, investigations revealed that a key accuser, known as "Anne K.
," likely does not exist.
Evidence points to a Green Party district politician impersonating "Anne K.
" and submitting a sworn statement under the false identity.
The politician denies the claims but cannot prove "Anne K.
's" existence.
The broadcaster RBB has retracted related reports and filed charges against the alleged impersonator.
Gelbhaar, who has consistently denied the accusations, calls the situation a deliberate smear campaign aimed at discrediting him and destabilizing the party.
