Hennigsdorf: they tried to deport her again!
iwspace
On the 7th of September, around 4 o’clock in the morning, in a Heim in
Hennigsdorf, a refugee woman was again compelled out of her room,
violently pushed in to a police car and taken to the airport in one more
forced deportation attempt. They didn’t succeed because the pilot
refused to take in a woman in such a distress. They came as they do: in
many, violently pushing, humiliating, handcuffing as if the woman was a
dangerous criminal.
We, from the IWS, went to Hennigsdorf, to see her, after once again she
resisted her deportation and what followed was a horror display of more
violence against her and also against us, her friends.
We arrived in the Heim around 12h. She was nervous, weak, scared. Her
arms were red and swollen. Her nightgown, clothes she was wearing when
she was arrested, was full of blood, her back had red marks left by the
police. We agreed she should see a doctor, go to the hospital. We then
called the Ambulance. They came, but they didn’t seem interested in
helping her. They were more worried about a mobile phone we used to film
her, not them. One of the male nurses came to us and asked us to delete
our footage, which we did immeditately in order to calm them down and
give our friend the attention she needed. It was too late though. They
decided to create a scence out of the short and meaningless discussion
about the filming and opted for calling the police. Meanwhile the
unfriendly faces of the Heim’s administration surrounded us. We didn’t
know what was terrifying them the most: the fact that in our group there
was not one German looking person and we were speaking in English, the
fact that we could be from the press because one of us showed a press
card or the obvious fact that none of us was the German white prototype
of a human being. Maybe all of these together. In a few minutes four
police cars arrived. To do what? Keine Ahnung, no idea. There was
absolutely no need for creating such a fuss. There was the need to help
a woman to go to the hospital. That was their main duty. That is why
they were called..
The police asked us a few questions and left. We tried a last
communication with the male nurses by asking them the address of the
hospital they were finally taking our friend, but they refused to tell
us. No problem, we knew Hennigsdorf doesn’t have many hospitals and went
to the one they took her to.
So we ask ourselves: until when refugees will be treated like criminals,
suspects? What leads people to disregard the needs of other human beings
in such a way? Taking even their rights to be helped. Male nurses called
the police against us because we were standing for our friend and we
should learn that to do so is also considered a crime because refugees
are not supposed to have friends. Why is the society in general so quiet
about the abuse committed against people who came to Germany to seek for
protection? The only answer we can find is Racism. It is because Racism
still plays the biggest role and as Racism is an irrational feeling, the
result cannot be other than violence.
