The Federal Police draws Pentecostal record: 66 searches and numerous rejections!
An attentive Pentecost weekend for the Federal Police Inspection Freilassing: Numerous unauthorized entry and attempts to slip were found at various controls at the border. In the period from June 6th to 9th, 2025, the police report a total of 66 search goals, including six arrest warrants. This shows how important the use of the federal police on the border with Austria to contain irregular migration.
The situation was particularly striking on Saturday morning when a Syrian driver with five inmates was stopped at the Walserberg border control point. Three of the passengers had no necessary documents for entry. The driver is now facing the suspicion of inlet of foreigners. While the occupants have to expect criminal proceedings for attempted illegal entry, they were rejected with the driver to Austria. Just a few hours later, on Saturday afternoon, a five -member Armenian family on the Saalach Bridge in Freilassing was identified and also rejected.successful operations by the federal police
Another example of the tireless use of the federal police was the stop of a vehicle with Slovak approval on Sunday. Here were passengers and an additional inmate without valid papers. The driver is suspected of being involved in smuggling activities, and the advertisement has been reimbursed. Criminal proceedings were also initiated against these people for attempted illegal entry, and they were not allowed to enter.
But the federal police are not only active in cases of unauthorized entry. An incident on Sunday, which was almost doomed by a 35-year-old Ukrainian, caused excitement. This crossed the tracks at Freilassing train station, which led to a sudden quick braking of a train towards Salzburg. Fortunately, everyone remained intact, but the Ukrainian was brought to the office to clarify the facts. Here, too, a security deposit of 200 euros was raised and an advertisement for dangerous intervention in rail traffic was filed.
border controls as a new normal
The increased vigilance of the federal police is not an individual case. Since September 2024, controls at the German national borders have been systematized and have already had an effect. In the shortest possible time, 22,243 unauthorized entry were found and 518 smugglers were arrested. It is clear that politicians want to contain irregular migration, which is also reflected in the numbers: a decline in the unauthorized entry in 2025, compared to previous years, becomes visible.
The Federal Police Inspection Freilassing has good to do: its area of responsibility extends over the districts of Berchtesgadener Land, Traunstein, Altötting and Mühldorf. With 21 border crossings, 225 kilometers of border length and 72 train stations, the challenge is great. All the more important is the use of the almost 400 employees who are not only preventive, but also rapidly in the event of incidents.
Overall, the Pentecost weekend was once again an example of the need for strong border controls and the vigilance of the federal police in order to protect security at the borders. News today about the intensive controls and their positive effects, while the Passauer Neue Presse informed about the need for valid documents. Also Tagesschau emphasizes the political background and successes of the past few months.
