Police brutality

The death of Oury Jalloh in Dessau reveals how the responsible authorities in Sachsen Anhalt and beyond i.e. BAMF Halberstadt, the foreign office, the administration, etc., deny the minority refugees their legal rights of Asylum and appropriate legal protection.

1st Statement of Farooq Khan - Court hearing on Police brutality in Ellwangen: This is about the illegal system

The German Judiciaries and administrative authorities work to protect police system, its brutality, its crimes, its abuses and its power of political repression against the refugee community. How the legal system works here in Germany could be observed once again yesterday for one more time – it is not about justice but moreover to protect especially police its brutality while executing racist laws and duty. For this reason the courts even join in to criminalize in an institutionalized fashion.

Yesterday was a very long day of prejudice and injustice – the court trial almost took 8 hours. It was another new experience for me to understand how this system can punish and criminalize you at the same long time and again and again.

Ankündigung und Aufruf zur Unterstützung

Wir, die Aktivisten der Flüchtlingsinitiative Schwäbisch Gmünd, rufen im Bündnis mit der bundesweiten Karawane für die Rechte der Flüchtlinge und MigrantInnen auf zur Solidarität mit Farooq Khan, der wegen seines Protests gegen Polizeibrutalität verfolgt wird.

Wir verlangen, dass das Gericht alle erfundenen Anklagen gegen unseren Mitaktivisten fallen lässt. Er war von einem Polizeihund gebissen worden und aus seinem Versuch, sich vor weiteren Verletzungen durch weitere Bisse zu schützen, wurde eine Anklage wegen Nötigung konstruiert.
