Among people in Germany, to whom security authorities potentially trust a act, are not only men. The German authorities have also classified several dozen women and adolescents as an Islamist threat. In total, re are currently 720 Islamist threaters in Germany. Among m re is a low single-digit percentage of women and minors, reported by German press agency, citing safety circles. This is likely to be a total of 30 female and minor Gefährdern.
Constitutional protection chief Hans-Georg Maaßen had recently warned of a danger posed by Islamist women and children – especially those who return from former combat areas of terrorist militia "Islamic State". He had said at time that re were women among Gefährdern in Germany – without mentioning a number.
According to Maaßen, re are children and adolescents who have been brainwashed in so-called schools in is area and who are strongly radicalized. When y return, y are sometimes dangerous. Women who have lived in radicalized in past few years are often so much in way that y identified with IS ideology that y could rightfully be described as Dschihadistinnen, he said. One of most well-known cases is 16-year-old Linda W. From Saxony, who was arrested in Iraq in summer.
There is no clear definition of classification as a threat in Germany. "A threat is a person in which certain facts justify assumption that y will commit politically motivated crimes of considerable importance, in particular those within meaning of § 100a of Code of Criminal Procedure (StPO)", was stated last year in a Response from federal government to a small request. In paragraph, a long list defines what is to be understood as a serious offense and when telephone surveillance is allowed.
In Germany, police authorities of Länder, in cooperation with State offices for protection of Constitution, determine who y classify as endangering. Relatively many of m live in city states, but also North Rhine-Westphalia and Hesse are considered as focal points – which can also be different criteria for classification.
