Kehl Federal Police Station in November 2010 On 30 November 2010, the Federal Agency visited Kehl Federal Police Station, the activities of which focus on both border police and railway police tasks. Approximately 600 to 1,000 removals per year are carried out via Kehl Federal Police Station, mostly from and to France. Although two removals were announced for the date of the visit, the returnees did not appear. The visit to Kehl Federal Police Station included an inspection of the questioning and search rooms, as well as the detention area. Recommendations of the Federal Agency As has already been explained, the Federal Agency is of the opinion that the use of wideangel spy-holes in the toilet doors constitutes an encroachment on an individual’s privacy (for a legal evaluation cf. page 24). Reaction of the Federal Ministry of the Interior The Federal Ministry of the Interior states that it has already communicated its position regarding the use of wide-angel spyholes in detention doors on another occasion (cf. C.I. 3). The Federal Agency was presented by the deputy head of Offenburg Federal Police Station with a checklist for detention which is used in the facility. The Federal Agency considers this checklist to be a meaningful supplement and an aid in orientation the introduction of which should also be recommended in other units. The content of the checklist is said to borrow from the detention record, so that two virtually identical records would have to be kept with regard to one and the same event. What is more, it is said to be critical if the non-binding checklist – which was evidently drawn up as a memory aid for new colleagues – was to supplement the binding detention code that had been introduced for the Federal Police. The Federal Agency has noticed when going The Federal Ministry of the Interior did not through the detention records that individual specifically explore this point in its statecontrol times were not noted in full. The ment. detention record should document as precisely as possible the times when checks are carried out in the detention areas. This serves not only to completely document detention events, but also constitutes additional security for the officers. The Federal Police gave an on-the-spot assurance that the various units would be pointed towards this need. 29
