Minister of the Interior Gerhard Karner used a police focus on Vienna Reumannplatz and in the area to attract an intermediate balance in the fight against juvenile crime. Vienna remains its center, especially with a special “problem group”.
The police focus campaign on Reumannplatz had not yet started on Tuesday afternoon, there were already three arrests: one because of an addictive violation, a foreign law and a exploited minor. Moreover, the officials took a knife to a man in the weapon ban.
Syrian under the age of 14 as a “problem group”
Minister of the Interior Gerhard Karner evaluated this with a local inspection as proof that the group founded in March 2024 must continue to “resist” juvenile crime. That does not change the “decent, proud balance”: 2470 minors were reported in Austria in 17 months and arrested in 147. Although a slightly falling tendency had to be determined nationally in the past twelve months, the number in Vienna has increased further.
Karner is responsible for crime, especially young minors, who are literally “problem children”. Among the 14-year-old Syrians are a special “problem group”: 333 of these suspects were found in Vienna in 187. The minister expressed his hope that the family’s reunification stopped, will also help to travel.
Simple glimpse of hope also in Vienna
Vice -President of the State Police Franz Owner has recently reported, like a minor, on whose account we wrote no fewer than 1359 crimes. Sometimes the minors point to their punishment with “breathtaking daring”, according to their own. However, there is also a spark of hope in Vienna: in May and June the number of suspicious minors fell by 16 percent compared to the average earlier.
