In Aargau, Switzerland, a social media post by SVP National Councilor Andreas Glarner has led to a severe backlash against Mitte politician Rita Brem-Ingold.

Glarner's post criticized Brem-Ingold for supporting the naturalization of an individual previously convicted of theft.

Following this, Brem-Ingold has faced a torrent of online abuse and even a death threat, prompting police protection.

Despite the threats, she was re-elected in the recent elections.

Glarner denies responsibility for the threats, stating his intention was merely to highlight political inconsistencies.

The incident has sparked a debate on the dangers of targeting politicians for their voting records, with concerns raised about the impact on democratic processes.
