This is the best summary I could come up with:
An arrest warrant has been issued for the newly-elected far-right politician to Bavaria’s state parliament, the Würzburg public prosecutor’s office said on Saturday
Daniel Halemba, a 22-year-old lawmaker with the Alternative for Germany Party (AfD) is being investigated for reasons that prosecutors refused to make public.

His party had announced a day earlier that one of its members was subject to an arrest warrant, without giving their name.
AfD parliamentary group leader Katrin Ebner-Steiner warned that Halemba faced potentially being locked up "on flimsy grounds.”
Lawmakers in Germany do enjoy immunity from prosecution but in Halemba’s case, this will only take effect from next Monday.

He is set to become the youngest politician in the chamber when it sits for the first time next week.
