Raimund Swoboda (born May 22, 1950 in Markt Erlbach ) is a German police officer and politician (formerly AfD ).

Life

Swoboda was for 43 years in the police service working as a police officer, including 25 years in the Professional category in Bavaria . Most recently before his retirement in 2012 he was Chief Police Director in Bavaria. Swoboda was a member of the Bavarian AfD . In the Bavarian state election in 2018 , he ran as a constituency member in the district of Neustadt an der Aisch-Bad Windsheim, Fürth-Land as well as on list number 1 of the AfD in the constituency of Middle Franconia and moved as a member of the Bavarian state parliament . Swoboda is married, has two children and lives in the Neustadt an der Aisch-Bad Windsheim district .

At the constituent state parliament session on November 5, 2018, Swoboda ran for the office of IV Vice President of the Bavarian State Parliament after Uli Henkel had previously withdrawn his candidacy. Swoboda missed the required majority with 27 votes in favor, 22 abstentions and 153 votes against. In the election for the parliamentary control body in December 2018, Swoboda, as an AfD candidate, did not achieve the majority of votes required for this. After Swoboda had accused the FDP parliamentary group leader Martin Hagen in this context of having portrayed him as an extremist, he referred to Swoboda's homepage, which warned against leaving politics "to the villains" and of a "dissolution of our people" the speech is.

On March 27, 2019, Swoboda resigned from the parliamentary group and the party. Thus, the AfD parliamentary group with now 21 members fell behind the SPD parliamentary group with 22 members. He justified his resignation with "fighting rhetoric in plenary appearances of individual AfD speakers as well as the increasingly aggressive roar of individual parliamentary group members during speeches of other parliamentary groups" and criticized the group chairman Katrin Ebner-Steiner for her "high-handed behavior".
