Some of those present are wearing beige trench coats, floppy hats, mirrored sunglasses. In the entrance area of the Maritim Hotel: light blue garbage bags filled with shredded files. Red and white tape cordoning off a symbolic area between parking posts, cars and curb: the &#8220;Crime Scene Constitutional Protection.&#8221; Representatives of the federal intelligence services meet in the hotel at the invitation of the &#8220;Federal Ministry of the Interior&#8221; &#8211; and talk about the &#8220;rights of the intelligence services as part of a symposium.&#8221; It is November 3, 2016 and exactly five years ago the right-wing extremist terror network &#8220;NSU&#8221; had unmasked itself. In the months that followed, institutional and personal involvement of the German domestic intelligence service and its federal offshoots in the murders of the &#8220;NSU&#8221; became public &#8211; to an unprecedented extent and to this day, in many cases, not completely clearable.<\/p>\n<p>One example of many is the role of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nsu-watch.info\/tag\/andreas-t\/\">Andreas Temme <\/a>, a member of the Hessian Office for the Protection of the Constitution, in the murder of <a href=\"https:\/\/de.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Halit_Yozgat\">Halit Yozgat<\/a>, a citizen of Kassel, in 2006. We have already presented the film <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forensic-architecture.org\/case\/77sqm_926min\/\">&#8220;77sqm_9:26&#8221;<\/a>, which meticulously reconstructs and reworks <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mangoes-and-bullets.org\/77sqm_926min\/\">this <\/a>murder.<\/p>\n<p>The activists of the group &#8220;Blackbox Verfassungsschutz&#8221; demand the &#8220;most brutal possible clarification&#8221; of these murders and entanglements. With public protest actions like the &#8220;Tatort Verfassungsschutz&#8221; (Crime Scene: Office for the Protection of the Constitution), the specialist group for political education of the &#8220;Naturfreunde Berlin&#8221; (Friends of Nature Berlin) wants to increase public pressure on the responsible, state agencies &#8211; and thus &#8221; bring the necessary light into the connection between state institutions and NSU (&#8230;)&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Further actions of the group are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blackbox-vs.de\/\">documented on their website<\/a>, where you can find extensive background information, press reports and an overview of those civil society initiatives that are involved in the investigation of the racist murder series.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Berlin-Mitte.
