– The far-right street movement PEGIDA yesterday called for a second day of protests in ex-communist eastern Germany after the alleged fatal stabbing of a German man by a foreigner.

The call by the anti-migrant and Islamophob­ic movement linked to farright party AfD came after police said a 35-year-old German national died in hospital following a “dispute between several people of different nationalit­ies” in the city of Chemnitz.

Two other men, aged 33 and 38, were hospitalis­ed with severe injuries, police added.

Several national media reported that demonstrat­ors shouted “get lost” at migrants. Others attacked them with bottles. –
