Freiburg (dpa / lsw) – The new police law passed by the green-black state government is met with protest. In Freiburg, critics demonstrated on Monday against the government’s decision to tighten police law. A group on the left had called for the action. According to the organizer, around 200 people followed the protest. They formed a line of people from the Freiburg Green Office to a nearby police station. The new police law, so criticized, limits the freedom and fundamental rights of citizens.
The government in Stuttgart had passed the new police law in March after long discussions. According to the information, it is that in certain cases, police officers may also use shoulder cameras (“body cams”) in apartments or discos. In addition, the legal basis for controls on people at major events such as football games is to be improved.
The government coalition had already announced an agreement on the police law in December. However, there was a dispute between the coalition partners over the interpretation of details.
