Yvonne Kussmann wrote that a 23-year-old Indian man snatched a five-year-old boy from his mother on a platform in Wuppertal in April 2018 and jumped in front of a train with him. The child survived the attack without serious injuries. In October 2018, the man was acquitted due to insanity caused by paranoid schizophrenia and placed in a secure psychiatric facility. Kussmann contrasted the diagnosis with the belief in demons like Asuras or Pishachas in India, from whom people might receive commands, including to kill. She stated that the man had been deported after about eight years in the secure facility; various media reported on this. At the same time, she questioned whether Western therapies were meaningful for a man with a different cultural background. Using figures from North Rhine-Westphalia for 2025, Kussmann calculated that among approximately 4,300 detained individuals, costs of 623 million euros had been incurred. This amounts to about 390 euros per person per day. For eight years in the secure facility, this totals just over 1.1 million euros for the man. Kussmann questioned why the man had not been immediately deported instead of being treated at the taxpayers' expense for so long. She noted that he had entered as an asylum seeker, attempted to kill a child, and had never received a punishment for the act. #Asylpolitik #PsychischeGesundheit #Gesellschaftsdebatte (translated)

Dr. David Lütke stated that rejected asylum seekers received 0 euros in France, Denmark, and Poland, while in Germany they received 563 euros as well as accommodation, heating, health insurance, child benefits, and a driver's license. He criticized that there was allegedly "no money" for care, pensions, and health insurance. https://t.co/oMHjfEV1G1 #Asylpolitik #SozialeGerechtigkeit #EU (translated)

The introduction of the payment card for asylum seekers in Hesse, which was originally intended to reduce the number of refugees, has proven to be ineffective due to technical hurdles and municipal resistance, as the actual decrease in the number of asylum seekers apparently only marginally correlates with this measure. #Bezahlkarte #Asylbewerber #Hessen (translated)

Christine Anderson asked how rejected asylum seekers, who spoke little or no German, could appeal their decisions. She wrote that this could only be done with the help of a large, possibly subsidized NGO complex that undermines departures and paralyzes the courts. https://t.co/oM2KO4AscU https://t.co/YGdavBID9p #Asylrecht #Integration #NGOs (translated)

Yvonne Kussmann reported, citing the Südwest Presse, that a 27-year-old Afghan appeared at the town hall in Tuttlingen with a weapon and was subsequently shot by the police. Before that, he had applied for a fiction certificate there, which could serve as proof of legal residence for asylum seekers during an ongoing asylum procedure. The document was not issued to him; after that, he was removed from the building. Kussmann wrote that the man then returned with a weapon. The reason why the certificate was not issued was initially unclear. The 27-year-old was known to the police and in the city for psychological disturbances, she wrote. She announced that she would submit an inquiry regarding the case. Kussmann compared the incident to the attack in Illerkirchberg: A 27-year-old Eritrean had attacked 14-year-old Ece and her friend with a knife on the morning of December 5, 2022, as they passed by the accommodation of Okba B. on their way to the school bus. The man wanted to go to the district office to kill staff of the immigration authority because they had not issued him a travel document. Kussmann wrote that he assumed the girls had seen his knife and would notify the police. Ece was so severely injured that she died two hours later in the hospital; her friend was able to escape after the first attack and survived with serious injuries. Kussmann wrote that the case in Tuttlingen ended differently and did not require any uninvolved victims. #Tuttlingen #Asylrecht #Gewaltprävention (translated)

René Springer wrote that people entered Germany illegally, threw away their passports at the border, and then received basic security benefits for five or ten years under the Asylum Seekers Benefits Act. The reports from the Federal Police on this matter are clear, he stated. Taxpayers have a right to ensure that the system is not exploited. Springer called for a right to basic security to be granted only after ten years in Germany, along with employment, knowledge of German, and tax payments, and then to be limited to one year. He demanded an end to the decades-long exploitation of the welfare state. #Asylpolitik #Sozialstaat #Steuerzahler (translated)

After the Federal Prosecutor's Office announced yesterday that a Kuwait-born suspected IS fighter was arrested in Hesse and a Syrian suspected war criminal was arrested in Rhineland-Palatinate, I made a press inquiry. I wanted to know when the suspects entered Germany, whether they applied for asylum, and what residence status they had at and after entry as well as what they currently have. I also wanted to know whether the suspects had previously been known to the police for similar crimes or violent offenses or had a criminal record. Shortly after that, I received a call from a spokesperson for the Federal Prosecutor, who informed me that they did not want to provide any further information due to the protection of the suspects' personal rights. I took note of this and wrote a rebuttal, citing the necessary weighing between the public's interest in information and the specific, worthy interests of the affected suspects. I pointed out that my questions 1-3 exclusively concern the stay of the suspects in Germany, withdrew the fourth question (because one can argue here with the presumption of innocence and personal rights), and requested answers to questions 1-3. Lastly, I asked to at least name the year of entry and answer the question about the asylum application if more detailed responses are not possible. In case no response is given, I requested confirmation of the refusal to provide information as well as a concrete justification. I received the response earlier via email, see screenshot. They concluded, after weighing "all possible aspects," that the personal rights of a suspected IS fighter and a suspected war criminal, who is accused of executing three people with a close-range headshot, weigh more heavily than the legitimate public interest in knowing how long the suspects have been in Germany and whether they entered the country as asylum seekers. Well then. This does not correspond to my understanding of transparency. In this context, I would like to point out that you can also support my work. Any support helps to make research, court visits, on-site appointments, technical costs, and the further expansion of my portal Current Information possible. Unfortunately, at the moment, the costs are higher than the revenue. I would therefore be very pleased and grateful for any support.

2025 wurden in bayerischen Asylunterkünften über 14.000 Straftaten registriert, darunter knapp 4.000 Rohheitsdelikte und über 3.000 Körperverletzungen. Zahlen zu Haftbefehlen gegen Asylbewerber konnte das Innenministerium nicht vorlegen. https://t.co/wlQnVR1tk3 #Asylpolitik #InnereSicherheit #Kriminalität

GLUT exklusiv: 453.000 Euro – für weniger als fünf Monate Arbeit. Finanziert vom Steuerzahler. Diese üppigen Bezüge erhielt eine Geschäftsführerin von „Fördern & Wohnen“, einem städtischen Unternehmen in Hamburg, das für die Flüchtlingsunterbringung in der Hansestadt zuständig ist. Zum Vergleich: Der Hamburger Bürgermeister verdient im gesamten Jahr knapp die Hälfte. Die Asylindustrie in Hamburg floriert seit Jahren. Und das System funktioniert so: Die Stadt legt Gebühren fest, die man für die Unterbringung von Flüchtlingen erhält. Diese Gebühren können relativ willkürlich festgelegt werden und wurden über die Jahre immer weiter erhöht.  Mittlerweile zahlt die Stadt Hamburg 889 Euro monatlich pro Asylbewerber. Dieses Geld fließt dann an „Fördern & Wohnen“, das nicht nur zu 100 Prozent der Stadt gehört, sondern auch einen Großteil der Flüchtlingsunterbringung in der Hansestadt übernimmt. Da seit 2015 der Zuzug in die Hansestadt kontinuierlich anstieg, schoss auch der Umsatz von Fördern & Wohnen immer weiter in die Höhe. Und die Geschäftsführung sahnt kräftig ab.  Wie erklärt der Hamburger Senat diesen zweifelhaften Umgang mit Steuergeldern? Und wie begründet „Fördern & Wohnen“ die sagenhafte Vergütung?

Das neue EU-Asylsystem GEAS ist ein Rohrkrepierer: Die meisten Asylbewerber lassen sich weiter erst in Deutschland registrieren, obwohl sie zuvor in anderen EU-Ländern waren. Die Pull-Faktoren wirken. Eine Migrationswende gibt es nur mit der AfD! https://t.co/JPMneUubGF #Asylpolitik #Migration #EU

Sie wissen, dass Asylbewerber heute schon nach wenigen Monaten arbeiten dürfen? Selbst Geduldete. Und bis dahin könnte man sich ja mal ein Buch schnappen und sich bilden. Mir würde jedenfalls vieles einfallen, außer kriminell zu werden oder bloß rumzudödeln. Aber da sind wir schon wieder beim Thema…nämlich dass das Potenzial der meisten, das Sie hier herbeifabulieren, gar nicht so groß ist. #Asylbewerber #Integration #Bildung

Die neuen EU-Asylrechtsreformen führen dazu, dass die Mehrheit der Asylanträge in Deutschland nun in Schnellverfahren bearbeitet wird, was Bedenken hinsichtlich der Qualität der Entscheidungen und der Behandlung von Asylbewerbern aus bestimmten Herkunftsländern aufwirft. #Asylrecht #EUReform #Flüchtlingspolitik
