German police investigate Roger Waters for Nazi-style costume at concert

Roger Waters, co-founder and former lyricist of Pink Floyd, is under investigation by German police for wearing a Nazi-style uniform during a concert in Berlin on May 17.
He is being investigated for incitement of public hatred under Germany's prohibition of Nazi symbols, flags, and uniforms, which is a separate law from the country's hate speech laws.
Waters is a pro-Palestinian activist who has been accused of holding anti-Jewish views, denying the accusations and arguing that he condemns antisemitism but is demonstrating against Israeli policies.
