On Saturday, August 28th, 2021, RAMMSTEIN frontman Till Lindemann was arrested in his hotel room and brought to a police station for questioning.
Summa Inferno reports that Lindemann’s solo project was set to perform at the Maklarin For Homeland festival in Tver today, Sunday, August 29, despite COVID-19 restrictions for mass gatherings in place in Russia. It is believed this was the reason for his detainment.
Lindemann’s manager, Anar Reiband, is also facing charges, having entered the country as a tourist. However, authorities believe that he is an organizer of the festival and if convicted he could face deportation and a permanent ban from the country.
