Conny Wessmann dating history

Details

Cornelia "Conny" Wessmann was a 24-year-old student, when she died on 17 November 1989, during a police raid in Göttingen, West Germany. On that day, neo-Nazis rioted in the city centre of Göttingen. At that time, it was often the case that neo-Nazis attacked left-wing institutions or refugee centres. Antifaschistische Aktion groups and other people tried to stop the attacks of the Nazis by mobilizing people with telephone chains. As Wessmann was part of such a group. When her group arrived at the scene, the neo-Nazis were already stopped by the police and brought out of town. The police then followed her group which planned to dissolve near the university campus. Close to the busy Weender Landstrasse, the group was attacked by police forces. Trying to escape over the street, Wessmann collided with a car and died.
