Weeks before elections, ID group says it does not want to be associated with incidents involving AfD’s Maximilian Krah.

The decision follows comments that Maximilian Krah, the AfD’s lead candidate in the elections, made to an Italian newspaper at the weekend that the members of the Nazi paramilitary SS force were “not all criminals”.
