Central information point for sports activities

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Central Information Center for Sports Deployments ( ZIS ) registers and observes violent football criminals nationwide within the framework of the “Violent Sports Offenders” file. The ZIS is in contact with other countries via the international exchange of data to prevent hooligans from entering stadiums. It is maintained by the North Rhine-Westphalia Police ( LZPD NRW , Department 4) and is based in Duisburg .

Emergence

In 1991, the Standing Conference of the Interior Ministers and Senators of the Länder (Interior Ministers' Conference , IMK) decided to set up a central office to standardize the efforts of the respective Land Information Centers for Sports Deployments (LIS). Because North Rhine-Westphalia provided most of the Bundesliga clubs, the ZIS was assigned to the North Rhine-Westphalia State Criminal Police Office in Düsseldorf as Department 43 in 1992 . Due to the new version of the Police Organization Act of North Rhine-Westphalia (POG NW), which came into effect on July 1, 2007, and the associated reorganization and creation of a total of three higher regional authorities, the ZIS is now affiliated to the new State Office for Central Police Services NRW (LZPD NRW) as part of department 41.3. The central information center works closely with the respective state information centers and officials who are familiar with the scene in order to create comprehensive situation reports.

"Violent Sports" file

In the "Violent Sport" file, which has been kept since 1994, 13 032 people are recorded (as of March 9, 2012) - based on the police forces of the federal states and the federal government as well as data transmitted from abroad. The entry is made according to the crime scene principle . Thus, the respective registering agency is responsible and responsible for further maintenance in the form of updating and deleting the data record.

On May 22, 2008, the Hanover Administrative Court ruled that there was no legal basis for an entry in the "Violent offenders Sport" file. The Lower Saxony Higher Administrative Court confirmed the reason for the judgment. In April 2010, the Karlsruhe Administrative Court also ruled the file as illegal in three proceedings. In June 2010, however, the judgments in the appeal by the Federal Administrative Court were rejected because the Federal Ministry of the Interior had submitted the relevant ordinance at the time of the decision.

Entries

The data of persons are saved against whom a criminal investigation has been initiated in connection with sporting events for the following criminal offenses or who have been convicted of the following facts:

In addition, entries are made under certain circumstances

Consequences of an entry

An entry in the file can result in a nationwide stadium ban on the part of the DFB , passport restrictions or a ban on leaving the country for the person concerned. However, the football association and sports clubs do not have access to the file "Violent offender sports".

Categories

The entries in the register are made in categories:

  • Category A ("A-Fan"): the peaceful fan
  • Category B ("B-Fan"): the violent fan
  • Category C ("C-Fan"): the violence-seeking fan

Ultra groupings with choreographic productions usually fall into category A. The popular burning of pyrotechnic articles - in connection with the respective stadium regulations - leads to investigations as a violation of the Explosives / Weapons Act and thus to an entry in the file for violent offenders sports.

Annual reports

The ZIS presents the figures it has determined in annual reports.

The estimated data from the police authorities for the 2011/2012 season about people in Category B (inclined to use violence) and Category C (determined to use violence) in the supporters of the 1st and 2nd Bundesliga add up to 11,373 people (previous year approx. 9,685) .

By country

Berlin

In 2015, the state police in Berlin recorded 1612 people in the file “Sportgewalt”. The vast majority of these category B and C problem fans were divided between the football clubs Hertha BSC (535; 477 Category B, 70 Category C), BFC Dynamo (506; 382 Category B, 124 Category C) and 1. FC Union Berlin (466). The football club Tennis Borussia (26) followed well behind . About 90 of the 1612 listed violent criminals were listed as "belonging to the right-wing scene", with most of them being supporters of the BFC Dynamo.

Hesse

According to information from the Hessian Ministry of the Interior and for Sport , there is a potential problem fan potential of around 1,100 people in the first three leagues across Hesse (880 Category B and 220 Category C). In the network file "Violent Sport" there are currently (July 2012) supporters of

detected.

Saxony-Anhalt

In Saxony-Anhalt , 1. FC Magdeburg is said to have the most category fans in 2018, with 450 fans willing to use violence and 100 fans seeking violence, according to the state police.

criticism

The figures published by the ZIS are criticized by football fans for their imprecise statement. So complained z. For example, the Alliance of Active Football Fans (BAFF) stated that the annual report published by ZIS in 2012 reported an increase in the number of injuries, but did not mention the reasons for this. The BAFF wants to point out that injuries can also result from police and stewarding operations.

The nationwide fan alliance proFans also criticizes the procedure with the "violent offender sports" file. This file is seen by many active fans as a means of repression, as people are also registered in the "violent offender sport" who "were only in the wrong place at the wrong time" and who did not actively participate in the riots, but under the Criminal offense of breach of the peace were registered. The problem is the length of the investigation, sometimes several years, and the consequences associated with the entry that have not been deleted (e.g. stadium bans, travel bans). The Fananwälte working group assumes that the file “will not withstand a constitutional review”.

The Higher Administrative Court for the State of North Rhine-Westphalia issued an interim order against the State of North Rhine-Westphalia in September 2013 and obliged to change the 2011/2012 annual report with immediate effect. The background was the portrayal of a person as a "violent criminal" who had not previously been noticed because of an act of violence. (OVG NRW Az. 5 B 417/13)
