Berlin. By cell phone jammer, the now deported perpetrator Mohamed A. from the prison Tegel out a twelve-year-old instigated the attack on the Christmas market in Ludwigshafen. Politicians, but also the union of the police demand now from justice Senator Dirk Behrendt (Greens) to proceed in the future against the smuggling of mobile phones in the prisons consistently.
“The incident shows in alarmingly clear how dangerous mobile phones are in prisons,” said Thursday on request, the spokesman for the CDU parliamentary group in the House of Representatives, Sven Rissmann. “The CDU is committed to ensuring that there are cell phone blockers in all Berlin detention centers,” said Rissmann. FDP interior expert Marcel Luthe criticized: “The justice senator does not care about the prohibited handling of mobile phones. As a result, even Islamist perpetrators can have contact outside. ”
To equip all institutions, several million euros would be necessary
Police spokesman GdP spokesman Benjamin Jendro said: “More needs to be invested in security. The task of the prison is to ensure that mobile phones are not smuggled inside. “Justice Senator Dirk Behrendt told the Berliner Morgenpost:” We currently have only in the juvenile detention cell phone blocker, but we have agreed in the coalition that the JVA Moabit is equipped with it. “The tender is running. Whether the order could be realized depends on the costs. They are not available yet.
According to experts, several million euros would have to be invested to equip all prisons. It is also problematic that due to the advancing technology in mobile phones must be constantly retrofitted. One currently uses so-called mobile phone finders to detect the devices when they are in operation, and perform regular searches.
