In the Police Act under Police tasks, you can read this:

Tasks of the police


§ 2 The tasks of the Police Authority include


1. preventing, preventing and detecting criminal activity and other disturbances of public order or security,

This law has been in force since 1984..

Based on this, one can wonder if the Police can even cope with their first task.

Or what do you say?

Hi, just asked a police officer participating in the hunt for the "Kurdish Fox" about this and got the answer: "No. Right now we are doing a lot of other things, running meetings, the reorganization in 2015 has caused a lot of the situation we see now. The focus must be on creating the best possible conditions for external staff and investigators to do their job. That is what managers should focus on: removing all unnecessary tasks from staff".
