Recommendation:
Wien-Interne city
Facts:
On Saturday, several stands and two larger marching skills took place in the downtown Vienna. One march led from Dr.-Karl-Lueger-Platz to Am Gestade, the other from the heroic pitch to Börseplatz.
The aim of using the Vienna State Police Directorate – supported by forces from Burgenland, Lower Austria and Upper Austria – was to protect the right of assembly and to prevent a direct meeting of participants from different meetings.
In the course of the march from Dr.-Karl-Lueger-Platz, there were several trouble attempts by hooded people. The Viennese police had to dissolve three seat blocks – in the areas of Wollzeile, Brandstätz and Wippllingerstrasse.
In the area of Wippllingerstraße/Schwertgasse, there were also brief eggs on rally participants and emergency services.
According to the current status:
- 48 people temporarily arrested (administrative violations of blockages and non -determining identities),
- 6 people displayed according to the meeting law.
Thanks to the measures defined in advance and the prudent intervention of the police forces, a direct encouragement could be prevented in the opposite meeting. Public order and security were guaranteed throughout.
