When appointing Wels’ new police chief, Vienna rejected the Upper Austrian State Police, who had rarely unanimously recommended their long-serving candidates. But he was clearly the wrong color and at least his competitor had a good friend from his police school days. A political issue a la ‘business as usual’, say critics.
Did a meeting among friends who went to police school together decide who would become the police chief in Wels? On Wednesday it was announced that Stefan Müller had been appointed by the Minister of the Interior, overcoming the rarely unanimous recommendation of the state police in Upper Austria, including the staff representative, specialist and central committee for interim boss Hermann Krenn, for nine months.
