The spokesman said that the event was, in principle, a “sporting event in an enclosed space” and not a matter related to the crowd law, explaining that there was no need for notification. According to the data, an investigation is being conducted into a possible right-wing extremist background.

The spokesman added that there was a “place to showcase combat sports” at the meeting, noting that it could be assumed that this would “reinforce the shared ideology.”
The Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (domestic intelligence) wrote in its latest report on the Third Way party that the small party was founded in 2013 and now has around 800 members or supporters, and that their ideological statements are “national socialist, anti-Semitic and racist.”
The report indicated that the rejection of the democratic constitutional state was clearly evident in the party’s political movement, especially when it comes to “asylum and immigration issues that are addressed with aggressive rhetoric.”
The Office for the Protection of the Constitution in the state of Rhineland-Palatinate has been monitoring the party's movements for a long time.

The Third Way Party conducts “self-defense training” there at regular intervals, and there are also “drinking evenings” in conjunction with combat sports events to network with other far-right actors.
