Berlin (dpa) - The Bundestag CSU is calling for a tougher course against criminal clans and mafia families, against threats and extremists, but also against conspiracy theorists and “radical lateral thinkers”.
This emerges from a draft resolution for the state group's retreat in Berlin at the beginning of January, which is available to the German Press Agency - the “Münchner Merkur” reported on it first.
Among other things, criminal clans should be allowed to be expropriated more easily according to the CSU idea.
"Criminal clans and Mafia families are the importers of violence and crime into our society," says the paper.
Now one has to «meet the clan criminals where it is most effective: we want to take away their criminally obtained money, their luxury cars and their luxury real estate».
Specifically, the CSU members of the Bundestag demand a reversal of the burden of proof when confiscating assets: "In future, it must be possible to confiscate suspicious assets even if the person concerned cannot prove that the assets come from legal sources."

In addition, the Bundestag CSU is calling for a nationwide dropout and witness protection program to enable men, but especially women and children, to get out of criminal family clans.
Against so-called threats, such as violent Islamists or right-wing extremists, the Bundestag CSU should increasingly use shackles and preventive detention.
"We expect the federal states to monitor endangered persons more intensively and to make the wearing of an ankle cuff binding," says the paper.
"In addition, we want to create the possibility of taking radicalized threats into preventive detention as soon as they appear under criminal law and thus demonstrate their willingness to use violence."
For this purpose, preventive detention should already be made possible for first-time offenders.
The CSU regional group also wants to declare war on conspiracy theorists.
The Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution must “keep a very close eye on radical lateral thinkers, QAnon and other conspiracy extremists”, says the draft decision paper for the exam.
The constitution protection report should therefore have a separate chapter for targeted false reports and "conspiracy stories".
One must be able to proceed “with the utmost severity against those who, under the guise of exercising their freedoms, really want to attack our democracy,” says the draft resolution.

The list of demands of the Bundestag CSU also includes a lifelong ban on weapons for extremists, a new criminal offense for creating so-called lists of enemies and exposing individual people on the Internet, as well as their own “federal cyber police”.
