Maja Wiens
Maja Wiens is a controversial figure known for her leadership role in the activist group 'Omas gegen rechts' (Grandmothers Against the Right).

Her admission of being a 'bad unofficial collaborator' has sparked public debate about the integrity and credibility of her current activism, as she seeks to position herself as a champion of civil courage while having contributed to the repression of dissent during her time with the Stasi.
