Unresolved matters persist in Caroline Bosbach's case, as acknowledged by the CDU
CDU Rheinisch-Bergischer District Investigation: Caroline Bosbach Denies Allegations
The CDU Rheinisch-Bergischer district is currently embroiled in an investigation, with federal parliamentarian Caroline Bosbach at the centre of allegations. Bosbach maintains that she has not enriched herself, and the district has suffered no damage [1].
In a recent turn of events, Bosbach has denied the previous allegations made by "Stern" and RTL/ntv that she accepted 2,500 euros from a CDU party account via roundabout ways. She has also published a video on Facebook and Instagram to address the allegations [1].
The district executive has asked Bosbach several questions, and expects written answers by Friday of this week. However, Bosbach did not make herself available for questions during the meeting [1].
The district executive has announced that they will meet again on Saturday for evaluation. The CDU in the Rheinisch-Bergischer district has several unanswered questions in connection with the allegations against Bosbach [1].
It has been reported that Bosbach sent an email to the members of the CDU Rheinisch-Bergischer district, but it did not contribute to sufficient clarification [1].
The district executive has supported Bosbach's decision to hand over all documents related to the allegations to the Cologne Public Prosecutor's Office for independent review [1]. The documents have been submitted, and the investigation is ongoing with no final outcome disclosed publicly [1][2].
The Cologne Public Prosecutor's Office has received the documents for examination, but no specific updates on the progress or findings of the investigation have been publicized yet [1]. The investigation remains ongoing, with political tension within the CDU Rheinisch-Bergischer Kreis and open questions, such as unexplained cash payments linked to Bosbach, still unresolved [2].
Bosbach has refrained from campaign events until the matter is cleared, underscoring the seriousness of the situation [1]. She has also denied the allegations made by "t-online" and "Kontraste" regarding her payment for entry into the Mittelstands- und Wirtschaftsunion (MIT) [1].
Bosbach is known from the RTL show "Let's Dance". She is the daughter of the former CDU interior politician Wolfgang Bosbach [1].
