Prosecution accused of coercion by trade union - Prosecutor allegedly engaging in intimidation tactics, as claimed by the union.
The Police Union (GdP) in Germany has accused the Thuringian Prosecutor's Office of intimidation, following a series of investigations and subsequent raids. The allegations, made in an open letter by the GdP's federal board, claim that union members and staff representatives have been targeted.
The investigations, which involve police officers and breach of secrecy, have seen authorities carry out raids in Berlin and Erfurt. In March, offices of the GdP in Erfurt were raided, with servers seized, and further raids took place at the end of June. The Thuringian Prosecutor's Office conducted these investigations, but as of yet, they have not provided any evidence or specific details about the intimidation attempt in Berlin or the raids that took place.
The GdP's federal board has criticised the actions of the Thuringian Prosecutor's Office, suggesting that the methods used were excessive or unjustified. However, the exact specifics of the case, including who was targeted and the nature of the alleged intimidation, remain under investigation and have not been fully disclosed.
The Thuringian Prosecutor's Office has not publicly responded to the union's accusation of intimidation. The investigations are ongoing, and the public is encouraged to follow official statements from the Thuringian Prosecutor's Office, the Police Union (GdP), and news reports covering the ongoing developments for the most updated and detailed information.
The police union in Germany, GdP, has levied allegations of intimidation against the Thuringian Prosecutor's Office, following a series of investigations and subsequent raids, which seemingly touch upon community policy, employment policy, crime-and-justice, politics, and general-news, as they involve police officers and breach of secrecy. The union's federal board asserts that their members and staff representatives have been targeted in these investigations, yet the Thuringian Prosecutor's Office has not provided any evidence or specific details about the intimidation attempt, escalating concerns within the GdP.
