Neo-Nazis send death threats to city police chief
BIRMINGHAM’S police chief has received chilling death threats from an alleged neoNazi group.
West Midlands Police chief constable Dave Thompson was branded a ‘race traitor’ by the far right thugs.
The organisation reportedly mocked up an execution scene, similar to a threat made to Prince Harry.
West Midlands Police stations are said to have been referred to as ‘high-value targets’ in posts on encrypted messaging service Telegram.
Chief Constable Thompson received the threats after counterterrorism officers in the Midlands arrested a suspected right-wing extremist plotting an attack on British soil. West Midlands Police is investigating.
The extremists reportedly posted a picture of Mr Thompson with a gun pointed at his head on Friday September 13.
Online literature was said to have referred to officers working in police stations as ‘race traitors’ and described far-right extremists as ‘white freedom fighters’.
Chillingly, addresses of West Midlands police stations were posted.
The group stated that the police stations should be “considered high value targets to any local NS [National Socialist]”.
The writer signed off the post by saying: “F*** their badges, f*** the rule of law, Heil Hitler, and remember the names of these traitors.”
Other propaganda posters called for the release of a right-wing extremist or “your heads will be our agenda”.
A West Midlands Police spokesman said: “West Midlands Police is aware of offensive images relating specifically to the force on social media. Enquiries are ongoing to trace those responsible.”
Security Minister Brandon Lewis said: “Any threat to our police officers is despicable.
“They work tirelessly to keep us all safe and we continue to support them as they work to tackle crime and the forms.”
A far-right teen who branded the Duke of Sussex a race traitor in an “abhorrent” online post was locked up for four years and three months in June.
University student Michal Szewczuk, 19, from Leeds, created an image of Harry with a pistol to his head against a blood-spattered background. He was sentenced at the Old Bailey alongside 18-yearold Oskar Dunn-Koczorowski, from London, who had admitted two counts of encouraging terrorism.
Szewczuk was ordered to be detained in a young offenders’ institution after pleading guilty to two counts of encouraging terrorism and five counts of possession of terrorist material.
