Philipp Maximilian Hasselbach (born October 12, 1987 in Essen ) is a German neo-Nazi and a leading cadre of the free comradeship scene , who appears as a speaker and meeting leader at right-wing extremist rallies, especially in the south and west of the republic.

Career in North Rhine-Westphalia

Hasselbach first became active in the neo-Nazi scene in Essen and in 2003 became the leader of the neo-Nazi comradeship " Josef Terboven ", named after the National Socialist Gauleiter for Essen and later Reich Commissioner in Norway . For a while, Hasselbach also headed the Essen base of the German Socialist League . At the same time he appeared nationwide as a speaker at numerous neo-Nazi rallies. On October 20, 2003, he had to begin a prison sentence, whereby the Bottrop district court had postponed the start of prison so as not to endanger his school leaving certificate. At a rally with a few neo-Nazis from the environment of free comradeships on 4 October 2004 in Herne he was still during his speech on suspicion of sedition detained provisionally.

Leading neo-Nazi cadre in southern Germany

At the beginning of 2005 Hasselbach moved to Munich and together with Hayo Klettenhofer founded the comradeship “Autonomous Nationalists Munich”. Both initially worked closely with the neo-Nazi Norman Bordin , but later differences of opinion arose. Hasselbach now appeared primarily in southern Germany as a speaker and organizer of numerous neo-Nazi rallies. He also made contact with leading representatives of the Austrian Ring of Freedom Students (RFS) and discussed with them, among other things, a future radicalization of the FPÖ with reference to the radical youth of the NPD . At the same time, his tactic of threatening municipalities with the mass registration of demonstrations became known. Hasselbach was a direct candidate of the NPD for the 2009 federal election for the Munich-Land constituency.

In addition, Hasselbach works very closely with the NPD Bundestag direct candidate and comradeship leader (Freundeskreis Gilching) Ron Appelt.

After his release from prison (see below) in early February 2014, Hasselbach supported the Munich local election campaign of the right-wing extremist citizens' initiative Ausländerstopp . On Hitler’s 125th birthday on April 20, 2014, he and like-minded people founded a district association of the party Dierechte in Munich . The Bavarian Office for the Protection of the Constitution assumes that Hasselbach has pushed ahead with a split in the Munich neo-Nazi scene, because that district association ("Dierechte") sees itself as direct competition to the neo-Nazi umbrella organization Free Network South , from whose ranks a member at the end of March 2014 Munich base of the party “ The III. Weg “was founded. Philipp Hasselbach is considered a stimulating figure within the right-wing extremist scene.

Hasselbach is chairman of the Bavarian regional association of the party Dierechte (as of 2015).

Functionary of the "Young National Democrats" (JN)

From February 2006 to the end of April 2006 Hasselbach was a member of the Bavarian state board of the NPD youth organization “ Young National Democrats ” (JN) as managing director and treasurer. At a special JN-Bayern conference on April 30, 2006, the old board of directors around Mike Nwaiser , Philipp Hasselbach and Hayo Klettenhofer was dismissed . The accusation was "financial mismanagement". Hasselbach's adversary, Norman Bordin , was elected as the new state chairman in the presence of “prominent figures” in federal politics .

Legal proceedings

Hasselbach has committed several offenses. On November 13, 2003 he was z. B. was sentenced to arrest by the Essen District Court for jointly committed dangerous bodily harm. On October 18, 2006, the District Court of Munich u. a. for several crimes against police officers, incitement to hatred and for commercial fraud to a youth prison sentence of two years on probation. In August 2009 photos appeared showing Hasselbach in front of a swastika flag, clearly showing the Hitler salute . On October 16, 2009, Philipp Hasselbach was again on trial for an act of violence. Hasselbach had completely destroyed a press photographer's lens. Because of willful damage to property, the Munich District Court imposed a three-month prison sentence on him without parole, which was later converted into a six-month prison sentence by the Munich District Court I , but which, despite Hasselbach's overt probation, was again suspended for three years .

In July 2010 Hasselbach was arrested again. The arrest warrant was for dangerous bodily harm . In addition, Hasselbach was accused of insulting , trespassing and property damage . Specifically, he was accused of having been involved in a serious attack on a dropout from the neo-Nazi scene. The Munich District Court sentenced Hasselbach to one year and eight months without parole and also revoked the suspended parole in previous judgments. Overall, Hasselbach then had to serve a prison sentence of around three and a half years.
