In the city of Schwerin, investigations are underway by the local prosecution, with the latest developments involving potential fraud and embezzlement allegations against two high-ranking police officials. The exact identities of these officials have not been disclosed.

The embezzlement investigation is a new development in the ongoing affair that also includes the accelerated promotion of a police officer. However, no connection between the new case and the earlier case of the embezzlement has been established.

The investigations have uncovered potential losses of 430,000 euros to the state due to unpaid invoices, subject to the statute of limitations. No specific details about the nature or amount of the embezzlement have been disclosed.

The investigations have expanded to include possible offenses in the procurement and distribution of protective equipment during the Covid-19 pandemic. The exact nature of these offenses has not been disclosed.

Searches of workplaces were conducted with the assistance of officers from the Brandenburg State Criminal Police Office. The search results do not provide the names of the two high-ranking officials facing allegations of suspected fraud.

The two high-ranking officials are under suspicion for their roles in the embezzlement case. The new developments in the investigation do not involve the embezzlement case that led to the accelerated promotion of a police officer, who has reportedly withdrawn his acceptance of the promotion.

The outcome of these investigations could potentially lead to legal action against the involved officials. It is important to note that the investigations are still ongoing, and further details may be disclosed as the process continues.

This news serves as a reminder of the importance of transparency and accountability in public offices, especially during times of crisis. As the investigations progress, the public will be kept informed of any significant developments.
