The Christian Democratic Union (CDU) in Halle is calling for an immediate crisis summit under the leadership of the municipality of Halle (Saale) on the subject of migrant and juvenile delinquency. The reason for this are the incidents of the last few days. Afghan youths attacked participants at the CSD, and on Sunday there were three major confrontations on Riebeckplatz involving people from Syria, Jordan and Gambia. Parents have formed a sort of vigilante group because of the constant attacks on pupils. Pupils have been advised to only walk in groups.
“The events of the weekend at the CSD and at Riebeckplatz, as well as the founding of a vigilante group to secure the routes to school, must have made even the last responsible person realise that Halle has an unresolved problem with violent migrants who do not abide by the law. The ideological talk about these problems must be stopped and the administration must give top priority to the fight against gang crime,” said Marco Tullner, chairman of the district council.
The deputy chairwoman of the district, Kerstin Godenrath Member of the State Parliament, also points out that the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) city council faction had already demanded a corresponding security concept in February 2023, which was adopted by the city council in May 2023.” The question is what measures have been implemented since then, because apparently the situation is getting worse and worse. I expect Halle’s migrant organisations to have a stronger preventive effect on the migrant milieus concerned,” says Godenrath.
