Parliament sets up inquiry into failure to detect neo-Nazi killers | Germany | Deutsche Welle | 26.01.2012

Two parliamentary inquiries will investigate why 34 separate German police and intelligence agencies were unable to get solid leads on a murderous trio of neo-Nazis who killed 10 people before their group collapsed last year.

 

The Bundestag, Germany's lower house of parliament, on Thursday unanimously voted to establish one inquiry. The other was established in the state of Thuringia, the home state of the members of the group.

 

Peter Altmaier, parliamentary leader of the ruling Christian Democrats in the Bundestag, said the debate was largely marked by consensus. ""We were shocked that these people were able to create terror undetected and for so long," he said.

The facts known to date indicate that the Metropolitan Police is not the only law enforcement organization that has difficulties managing its informants.

The fact is that what we're experiencing right now is a top-down disaster. -Paul Krugman
