Under the provisions of the Court Organisation Act, the justice system is required to guarantee safety in court buildings by way of security checks. The checks are to be limited to whether persons who are entering a court building or are present therein are carrying a weapon. In order to fulfil this task, the security guard is authorised and obligated to require persons to show him any items they are carrying. Luggage and clothing may be searched by hand – with the greatest possible consideration and discretion. It is not permitted to search for medications or drugs; this is within the competence of the security police. The employee of the security service overstepped his duty that is established by law. He discriminated against Ms. N. with his questions regarding the medications she was carrying and her illnesses and violated her rights. Court apologises and promises additional training The AOB has taken favourable note that the President of the Court of Appeal Linz, within whose competence the authorisation of security services lies, promptly apologised in written form to Ms. N. and pointed out the necessity of additional training of its employees to the security company.
