The head of the Swiss Vaccination Advisory Commission said he was the victim of a brief kidnapping on March 31. The man accused of kidnapping was killed by Swiss police in a shootout. The story began to circulate in the press on April 8, but the identity of the kidnapped person was not known. Then Christoph Berger publicly stated that he was kidnapped for an hour on March 31 and his kidnapper asked him for a large sum of money for his release. “He didn’t say a word about my role as committee chairman,” Berger said. Who says he was released after promising the kidnapper he would honor his demands? Meanwhile, however, Swiss police shot dead a 38yearold German citizen on Wednesday, April 6, who is seriously suspected of kidnapping Berger. The alleged kidnapper, whose name and surname were not disclosed, was found in the town of Wädenswil in the canton of Zurich and killed by special police forces. Repubblica says today that his partner died with him, a 28yearold Swiss man who was apparently shot by the suspect himself. The newspaper states that the man was a flatearth believer and a NoVax. An accomplice of his was arrested.
