As per a Jewish media portal that quoted a Berlin Police representative, a criminal investigation has been launched against Waters on the 'suspicion of incitement of people'. Berlin Police Chief Martin Halweg was quoted saying that Roger Waters's costume could be seen as glorifying the violent rule of the Nazi regime. It is pertinent to mention here that earlier this year, Waters was accused of being 'antisemitic to your rotten core' by Polly Samson, wife of his ex-Floyd bandmate David Gilmour.
Notably.,Waters on 'antisematic' claims has stated that he is speaking out against Israel’s treatment of Palestinians. Interestingly, Waters started his Berlin show by insisting he is not anti-semitic.
