The BerlinerTiergarten on a sunny October day: Families stroll through park, cyclists meander through groups of people, from nearby Zooschallen children’s voices. And quite amRand, at Embankment: Amara, 65, and her son Alexander, 34.
In ir homeland Latvia, y would have lost ir house, told Amara, landlord put sievor door. Her pension was not enough to live, her SohnAlexander, mentally impaired, just did not find a job. So y came to Germany. They’ve been sleeping here for five months now, in Tiergarten.
This is increasingly becoming a problem for more important. The Tiergarten has fallen into headlines. With rubbish mountains and syringes on children’s playgrounds. With AfghanischenFlüchtlingen, who prostitute to finance ir heroin addiction. Swans that were probably eaten by homeless. But above all a murder.

In September, Wardie art historian Susanne F. Was attacked in Tiergarten. Your Leichefand one in shrubbery, no 30 meters from where Amara and Alexander now sit. The suspected perpetrator, a man from Chechnya, was inzwischengefasst.
No-go area or panic mongering?
Is DerTiergarten, since always not best address, meanwhile become a no-go-area? How dangerous it really is is hard to say. Some café owners report to homeless people who become aggressive when you sievertreibt. A social worker says y beat him up. There but also people who speak of “panic mongering”, a “hype”. The Tiergarten is probably not sichersteOrt at night – even if it is not one of city’s criminal hotspots.
In dark, Parkwie is extinct. And yet re are spots here, as flashlights glow. There rustling it, and you hear voices. Polish, German, Arabic, English strong accent.
It was a greener who raised Tiergarten on agenda. Stephan von Dassel, District Mayor VonBerlin-Mitte, had become clear during a press discussion. He fears dasEntstehen a “right-free zone,” he said. About 60 homeless would imTiergarten tents, some alcohol and drug addicts, many aggressive. Most came from Eastern Europe.
“Ultimately, it can be more social to bring people back home”
And n this proposition: “to deport aggressive homeless from EU countries should not be a Tabusein.” The echo of it was enormous, also because it is legally as good as impossible. Criticism came from his own party. Some of Dassel, who already wanted prostitution on Kurfürstenstraßeverbieten, is now known as “green hardliners”, as “Boris Palmer von DerSpree”.
A Wochespäter sounds more sophisticated than man who calls himself a pragmatist. From Dassel, 50, black glasses, green tie, stands a crossroads in Tiergarten, surrounded by journalists. He feels sichmissverstanden, he says, no one is throwing homeless people without notice from DemPark. His staff would point out homeless to offer of services. Also those from Eastern Europe.
Then it also says: “In end, it can be more social to bring people back home. Where y speak language at least. “
Accompanies by Dassel on this day by employees of district office, including MarkusSchwenke, head of street and Green Areas Office Center. Pan, 48, green uniform, holds photos in cameras that show what he and SeineKollegen have it daily: piles of rubbish, broken bottles, OffeneSpritzen. He tells of Pöbelnden homeless, insults, vontätlichen attacks that his employees are exposed to. and complains, DASSIHM manpower is missing. 30 permanent employees are too little. The DieZahl of homeless in Tiergarten has doubled in last eight years.
