dealing with homelessness in Gießen remains a central topic, as a current incident on July 24 shows. On this day, a 28-year-old homeless German crossed the tracks at the train station, which not only had consequences for himself, but also for the local community.

arrest based on an arrest warrant

The federal police carried out a arrest during the review of his identity in which an arrest warrant against the man was discovered. The homeless person had been convicted of a violation of the Narcotics Act and still had an outstanding fine of 1000 euros. Since he was unable to pay this amount, he was brought to the Preungesheim correctional facility. This raises the question of what support homeless receive in such situations.

reactions of the federal police

In addition to the arrest, the Federal Police Inspection Kassel led an administrative offense procedure against the man because of the unauthorized track crossing. This step is part of the efforts to increase security at train stations and to regulate such risky actions. Nevertheless, the question arises how to protect the rights of the homeless.

community and prevention

The incident has also led to discussions in the Gießen community. There are concerns that such criminal measures are not the solution to the deeper problems of homelessness.

It is important to understand the causes and to develop comprehensive solutions that benefit all those affected. This is the only way to benefit from a better climate of cooperation.
