Greifswald: Downstream police officer for data abuse - judgment made!

At the administrative court in Greifswald, a judgment was made today that has a strong influence on the promotion of a police officer. A 53-year-old officer from Greifswald was suspended to have accessed personal data from police databases unjustified. Despite this seriusity, however, it stays on duty and is only downgraded, reports ndr .

The decision was made on June 27, 2025. The unexpected course means in concrete terms: Instead of a police chief, the official will be degraded into a police master in the future. Its grade also drops from A 8 to A 7. A three -year ban on promotion is also in the room, which will prevent him from getting up again in the near future. This descent is the second -sharp measure that provides for the State Disciplinary Act.
