Fuhrer-ex

Ingo Hasselbach was born in East Germany in 1968, the only child of actively Communist parents. He grew up despising the rules they lived by, and hating the state. He fell in with a group of skinheads and became involved in casual violence as an expression of loneliness and contempt. In 1987 he was sent to prison for shouting "The wall must fall" in a public place. On release, he began working for a secret militant group opposed to the government, and when the government fell he opened up contact with an international network or neo-Nazis and racist movements, and began building up caches of weapons and starting paramilitary camps. He left the movement after the fatal bombing of a Turkish family in 1992 - an attack which killed two young girls and their grandmother. Although his group was not responsible for the attack, he realised the real potential of their rhetoric. Ingo Hasselbach is now a reformed man, and bitterly regrets his own involvement in the right-wing militia.
