+++ Information on the gatherings in Dortmund | 28.10.2023 +++

12:43 pm: We are on duty for you today! Due to several gatherings in Dortmund city center, there may be traffic disruptions in the city area today. If possible, please avoid the area. #PolizeiDO #Demo #Dortmund

13:10: In our democracy, everyone has the right to assemble peacefully and without weapons. This high right should be protected today by our emergency services. Furthermore, we appeal to all participants: Behave peacefully! #PolizeiDO #Demo #Dortmund

13:40: Important information for those taking part in the rallies 📌

Fear-mongering, intimidation, hatred, calls for violence and expressions of sympathy for terrorist organizations are an expression of dangerous anti-Semitism.

This endangers public safety and order and thus social peace here in Dortmund. Slogans that incite hatred and violence are not protected by the Basic Law of the Federal Republic of Germany.

This is why we consistently use the police, assembly and criminal law to prevent or prosecute violations.
