Federal Police reaches: 50-year-old for falsification of documents!

At a border control on Autobahn 52 in Niederkrücht-Elmpt, a 50-year-old Turkish citizen was arrested by the federal police on May 20. The man arrived in a car as a passenger and there was an enforcement recruitment order from the Regensburg public prosecutor's office against him. He had been convicted of forgery of documents and was unable to pay the fine of 8,400 euros. Therefore, he was arrested on site and now has to serve a 60-day replacement imprisonment in prison in Willich. After the necessary police measures in Kempen, he was taken to start the custody, reports the Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger .

The police have been carrying out extensive controls on the limits for years to prevent criminal activities and unauthorized entry. The work of the Federal Police Inspection Rosenheim, which is responsible for an important border section, has proven to be particularly important. These controls, which have been intensified since autumn 2015, have led to the detection of hundreds of illegal entry and arrest of people with open arrest warrants, as in a Report of the Federal Center for Political Education is described.

Also in other regions, significant arrests were held. For example, on April 23, 2025, a 56-year-old German citizen was arrested at Hamburg Airport when she arrived from Istanbul. She has been sought by arrest warrant since December 2023 for falsification of documents. Although her fine of a total of 4200 euros was set, she was unable to apply the required amount and was ultimately brought to the Holstenglacis ceremony. Her son, who arrived at the airport shortly after her, was also checked and was sought because of his own arrest warrant, the Presseportal .

The controls are part of the measures to contain smuggling crime and to ensure public security at the limits. Particularly at strongly frequented entry points, such as the Inntaldreieck in Rosenheim, is checked in a random way to prevent unauthorized entry and other crimes.

The federal police play a crucial role in border protection and is constantly trying to ensure security in Germany. The recent incidents once again illustrate how important these controls are and what consequences a violation of the laws can have.
