Germany Drops Scientology Surveillance
Description
Germanys domestic intelligence agency has ended its decades-long surveillance of the Church of Scientology, citing a lack of relevance at the federal level. The church, however, views this as vindication, claiming the surveillance was institutionalized discrimination against a peaceful religious minority. The church, not officially recognized as a religion in Germany, has faced discrimination and surveillance since the nineties, with members losing jobs, business opportunities, and facing social stigma. This shift marks a significant change in the churchs status in Germany.
