Train trip horror: more patience than ever-decay and convictions in the country!

Train trip horror: more patience than ever-decay and convictions in the country!

Schwerin, Deutschland - The travelers on the railway line between Hamburg and Berlin will soon have to be patient. From August 1, 2023, the route will be completely blocked by March 30, 2026 due to a comprehensive general renovation. The effects will be noticeable: Passengers have to expect long travel times - from Hamburg to Berlin, the journey is extended by 45 minutes, and even an hour to Rostock. Around 3000 passengers are affected and have to switch to the rail replacement buses. A total of 27 bus lines are used in regional replacement traffic, which are coordinated with train traffic and local bus connections, as reported by the Baltic Sea newspaper.

But that's not all that the region concerns. The once magnificent hunting lodge in Friedrichsthal near Schwerin is exposed to progressive decay. Extensive investments were announced eight years ago, but they were never implemented. So far, the current owner has not made any construction, which means that the building authority cannot intervene to ensure the safety of the building.

left -wing extremism in focus

Another hot topic is the current developments in the field of left -wing extremism. The Federal Prosecutor has raised charges against several people, including four women and two men who presumably belonged to a left -wing extremist association. In April 2022, this group was active in four cities, including Schwerin, and attacked Thor-Steinar shops with considerable property damage of over 60,000 euros. The suspects are already in custody while a court date is still pending.

The person of Johann G. is particularly explosive, also known as the "Gucci", who is considered the head of the so -called "hammer gang". After more than four years of escape, he was arrested in November 2024. The Attorney General has raised against him and six further charges that include serious allegations such as membership in a criminal association and attempted murder. According to the Tagesschau, the process could become one of the most important against left -wing extremist criminals since the RAF.

The security authorities estimate that the left -wing extremist personal potential in 2024 has risen to around 40,000 people. Compared to 2023, there was an increase of 1,000 people. The violent left -wing extremists are particularly striking, the number of which remains stable at around 11,200.

insights into crime statistics

The constitutional protection authority also publishes new figures that document an increase in left -wing extremist motivated crimes. A total of 5,857 left -wing extremist crimes were registered for 2024, which corresponds to an increase of 37.9 %. In particular, the increase in violence against right -wing extremists is a topic that makes numerous waves in political discourse. Among other things, there were 3,859 crimes against right -wing extremists, which means a dramatic increase of 133.9 %.

Who would have thought that the topics of rail traffic, left -wing extremist activities and decaying properties are so closely interwoven? At a time when public discourse is often polarized, each one is required to contribute to a constructive dialogue and find solutions for the challenges of our time.

The drama of the situation around the hunting lodge, the developments in the left -wing extremist scene and the challenges in rail traffic are just a few facets of what the region is currently moving. It remains to be seen how the situation will develop.
