2,300 people who are obliged to leave in Rhein-Neckar: toleration or deportation?

2,300 people who are obliged to leave in Rhein-Neckar: toleration or deportation?

In the Rhein-Neckar region, around 2,300 people are subject to departure, as the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of the Interior announced in an answer to an FDP request in the state parliament. Around 1,200 of these people live in the Rhein-Neckar district, including around 600 in Mannheim, 284 in Heidelberg and 220 in the Neckar-Odenwald district. These people are only tolerated, which means that they cannot be deported immediately, but there are no specific reasons for these tolerations.

The FDP now calls for more consistent deportations and is concerned about the high number of tolerated, while the Ministry of the Interior could not provide any information about the nationalities or possible security concerns. In fact, over 24,000 tolerated people who are either rejected asylum seekers or illegally traveled live throughout Baden-Württemberg. The most common reasons for deportation are conflicts in the country of origin, health problems or unclear identity - a third of the tolerated have no papers. This Situation raises serious questions about how to deal with the people who are obliged to leave and whether the tolerations will be checked more strictly in the future.
