CDU Demands Clarification from Bosbach Amid Vote-Buying Allegations

CDU Politician Caroline Bosbach Denies Allegations of Misusing ... Funds

Caroline Bosbach, a CDU Bundestag member and the daughter of renowned politician Wolfgang Bosbach, has recently faced accusations that have stirred significant controversy. She is alleged to have illicitly withdrawn 2,500 euros from party funds and engaged in questionable practices to secure her position in the executive board of the Mittelstands- und Wirtschaftsunion (MIT). In response, Bosbach has firmly denied these claims, describing them as unfounded and part of a damaging campaign against her credibility. She argues that the allegations are based on manipulated chat records intended to tarnish her reputation. Bosbach has taken to Instagram and other platforms to assert her innocence, stating that she did not profit from any party funds. Meanwhile, the CDU district association has forwarded relevant documents to the Cologne public prosecutor's office, which is now reviewing the materials. Despite the absence of a formal criminal complaint, the investigation seeks clarity on the matter. Bosbach is hopeful for a swift resolution, aiming to clear her name while maintaining that the accusations are an attempt to undermine her standing within the party as the NRW municipal election campaign progresses.
