Arrested Over The Weekend: BPOLI LUD
In a series of recent incidents, several individuals from Poland and Ukraine have been apprehended by German authorities for violating various laws.
On Saturday afternoon, a 32-year-old Polish man was caught by federal police officers at Görlitz station. An arrest warrant had been issued for him by the Frankfurt am Main Regional Court, accusing him of violating the Residence Act. It was discovered that the man had exceeded the permitted tourist stay and his residence permit had expired, leading to his denial of entry and subsequent return to Poland.
Meanwhile, on Friday evening, a 41-year-old Polish man was arrested near the Görlitz train station. Eight years ago, a warrant for his arrest was issued by the Prosecutor's Office in Saarbrücken. The man had served the remaining 18 days of his prison sentence for a particularly serious case of theft, as imposed by the Saarbrücken Local Court.
In another incident, a 32-year-old Ukrainian national was stopped on the A4 highway. No outstanding debts were found against this individual.
Temporarily reinstated border controls at the Neiße rest area on the highway led to the detention of three individuals on Sunday. Two Polish men, aged 24 and 27, and a Ukrainian were among those detained. The 24-year-old Polish man had an outstanding bill of 1,050 euros with the State Justice Agency in Bamberg for property damage. The 27-year-old Polish man settled his own debt, which was being awaited by the court cashier in Saarbrücken for theft.
