While he has been on stage for almost 30 years with his metal band Rammstein, singer and leader Till Lindemann is accused by many women of abuse of power and sexual assault on the sidelines of his concerts.
On social networks, the wave of accusation arose following an Irish fan of the group denounced the behavior of singer Till Lindemann. Following his story, similar testimonies multiplied on the internet, then in the press and on German television which collected dozens.
All these stories highlight a system of sexual predation that would allow the 60-year-old German artist to obtain sexual intercourse, sometimes without consent, in return for access to dressing rooms or private parties. A person would be responsible for bringing down these fans upstream on social networks, but also on site during concerts.
The group denies the facts and addressed their fans on Saturday: “it is important to us that you feel comfortable and safe during our shows – in front of and behind the stage. We condemn any form of aggression “.
For now, in the absence of a complaint, no police investigation has been opened.

Blackouts and bruises
Shelby Lynn, who first accused the singer on social media, attended the metal band’s concert in Vilnius, Lithuania on May 22. According to her account, she was invited to a party before the concert, where she believes she was drugged without her knowledge, although a test carried out later turned out to be negative.
During the intermission, she meets the singer alone, to whom she says she does not want a sexual relationship with him. After the concert, Shelby Lynn will still attend a private party, but has no memories of the events. When she wakes up, she discovers bruises on her body.
These accusations fall in full European tour of the most famous group of Germany. In addition, the concerts scheduled for June 17 and 18 in Bern are maintained, according to the organizers who indicate that they are monitoring the events in progress.
