Zwei Stadträte in Weiden streiten: Wer soll beim Gedenken zur Pogromnacht sprechen?

In der Konrad-Adenauer-Anlage erinnert ein Gedenkstein an die von den Nazis ermordeten Weidener Juden. Dort findet alljährlich am 9. November eine Gedenkfeier statt. Um die entbrennt nun eine erbitterte Kontroverse.
