Germany: Insurer accused of ethnic discrimination

Via the Local:
A subsidiary of a German insurance company under fire for a controversial company sex party has now been accused of denying auto insurance to foreigners.

DAS, which is owned by the Ergo company – dogged by allegations employees at its Hamburg-Mannheimer unit held an orgy for top salesmen in Budapest several years ago – is said to have discriminated against Russians, Poles and Italians.

But Turks were particularly shunned, according to this week's edition of Der Spiegel magazine.

“Turks were especially unwelcome as customers,” a former insurance agent told Der Spiegel.
