Federal Police strikes: arrest warrant for control on the A40!

The federal police arrested a 49-year-old Bulgarian driver on October 8, 2024 during a traffic control on the Autobahn 40 near Wachtendonk. This measure was carried out as part of the temporary border controls, which have been in place at the Landsee Schengenbenbenbenzen in Germany since September 16, 2024. These controls were introduced at the instructions of the Federal Minister of the Interior and for Home and include not only the border line itself, but also road and rail traffic in the 30-kilometer range along the border.

In the case of routine control, the officials checked the driver's personal data and found that there was an arrest warrant from the Essen office against him. The reason for this arrest warrant? The man had not responded to a punitive order from the Gelsenkirchen district court. Due to a violation of the compulsory insurance law, a fine of 900 euros or alternatively a replacement imprisonment of 30 days was imposed. Since he was also unable to pay for the Federal Police to pay the fine, he was brought to the justice.

expanded border controls

The initiative to carry out these controls comes from the federal government and aims to increase the security in cross -border traffic. The federal police use current knowledge and border police experience to identify suspicious activities. The inspectors act in uniform and civil clothing to monitor and pursue possible criminal acts. Particular attention is paid to identifying movements of cross -border criminals and keeping the search for the search at a high level.

The introduction of these controls shows the aim of the authorities to increase security at the limits, especially in times when cross -border crime could increase. The federal police hopes for both a deterrence of potential criminals and faster identification of people who are sought due to violent crimes or other serious offenses.

The previous results of these control measures show that the police have already successfully arrested several people sought. Such operations are part of a more comprehensive strategy that aims to ensure public security and to offer the citizens a safe living environment.
