He just got kicked out of Pforzheim, Germany. I'm using a Swiss source, in order to assure as much accuracy as possible:

The scene is somewhat absurd. Just as the Austrian darling of the New Right, Martin Sellner, jokes about the problems with freedom of expression in Germany, police officers enter the room. “Good day,” says an official on the video recording that Sellner subsequently published himself.
The activist was actually speaking about the raid on “Compact” founder Jürgen Elsässer. A photo of Elsässer in his home in Falkensee is visible on a screen behind Sellner. When Elsässer opened the door wearing his bathrobe in that morning, he was confronted with a crowd of police officers. His right-wing extremist magazine “Compact” was banned by the Federal Ministry of the Interior in July.
The small hall in which Sellner attempted to hold a speech is now full of police officers in balaclavas. "Splendid. As if on command,” replies Sellner from the podium. An official informs Sellner that there is a restraining order levied against him from the municipality. Some in the audience shouted, “Shame on you!” and “Shame!” in the direction of the police officers.
Why all this? Sellner's books are neither banned, nor does he sell the government-banned magazine “Compact”. The answer to this question of why a lecture with a handful of listeners is stormed by around twenty police officers is bewildering.
This meant an early end for his lecture in Pforzheim, a city in the northwestern part of Baden-Württemberg. Sellner cleared his equipment and left the hall, accompanied by authorities. The man who is the spokesman for the Identitarian Movement in Austria must leave the community quickly. The expulsion was valid until the next day.
A press release from the Pforzheim police department states that the temporary residence ban is permissible if the assumption is justified that “the person will commit a crime or contribute to its commission.” The NZZ's inquiry as to which crime the authorities were specifically expecting remained unanswered until the text was published.
Sellner became known throughout Germany, through his publication, “Secret Plan Against Germany” by the medium “Correctiv”. The 35-year-old was one of the speakers at the so-called Potsdam meeting, where AfD and CDU politicians and other participants met at a rural hotel for strategic debate.
The city of Potsdam then issued the Austrian an entry ban on the grounds that he posed a threat to public safety. This turned out to be illegal and was subsequently lifted in May.
His topic at the time and during the reading tour: remigration. In his lectures and books, the new right-wing activist advocates that asylum seekers, designated for deportation and “unassimilated citizens” must leave Germany and Austria. Although voluntary, it is done through “pressure to adapt” and “tailor-made laws”.
Those who are “unassimilated” according to Sellner’s criteria – i.e. people with a German passport who are not adapted well enough – are the reason why there are repeated protests against his person and his performances. Critics accuse him of making statements that are anti-constitutional and xenophobic.
The official ban in Pforzheim is not the first incident on the right-wing activist's reading tour. In the Hessian city of Marburg, more than 2,000 people assembled to protest against Sellner's reading date. The Austrian was still able to perform, the reading took place in a neighboring town of Gladenbach.
His appearance in Saarland also caused a stir. The left-wing protest group “Grandmas Against the Right” gathered together with the Saarland Pirate Party for a counter-demonstration in Saarbrücken. The activist usually keeps the places where he gives his lectures secret until shortly beforehand so as not to be disturbed.
That's why demonstrators gathered in front of the rooms of some fraternities. In fact, Sellner did not appear at the fraternities, but attended the rally against himself. Unexpectedly, he stormed the stage and provoked the audience by suggesting that he wanted to direct them with a baton.
Several media outlets later reported that there had been a complaint about an alleged Hitler salute by Sellner. However, videos and photos of the disruption show that nothing of the kind happened. The author announced that he would take legal action against these claims.
According to his video diary, Sellner moved on to Passau to gather with supporters in a park. There, too, he was sent off by local authorities and also given a speech as a vulnerable person. According to his own statements, the author had to go to the police station. The police told him that the danger to him came from “left-wing terrorists”. The officers then accompanied the Austrian to the German-Austrian border.
Are state reprisals by German authorities achieving their goal? Without the local bans and expulsions, far fewer people would probably have known about Sellner's book titled, “remigration”.
