Dear citizens,

in our free and democratic state of law, the protection of civil and human rights plays an important role.
The dignity of the individual and the guaranteed freedoms are at the heart of our free democratic basic
order, on their protection of the state, with its Institutes - nen committed. It is no coincidence that the
Basic Law prefixing enshrined in Art. 1 the inviolability of human dignity as the basis of our law all other
fundamental rights guarantees. With Art. 1, the Basic Law makes unmistakably the fundamental
departure from any form of tyranny or totalitarianism significantly. The unlimited commitment to human
dignity is the unshakable basis of the fundamental rights and freedoms granted in the Constitution.

However, the fundamental rights and freedoms can only develop if they are put into practice confidently
from the citizens their full effect as core components un- Serer democracy. With the freedom of the
individual and the acceptance of responsibility for one's life is therefore inextricably linked. While
protecting and supporting the state where help is needed, but otherwise respected the different lifestyles
of its citizens.

The world and humanity by extremists other hand, is a completely different. -selective or theocracies,
communist colleagues or anarchist societies is no room for the recognition of individual liberties even for
democracy itself - in the desired course of "leader."

The majority of the population is aware of the dangers posed by extremist group-pierungen, fully aware
and assigns them to the extent they spread open in the societal discourse their ideologies, confident
back. This is partly a credit to the many years of education and information work of the constitutional
sungsschutzbehörden federal and state.

Nevertheless, it is undeniable that places an alienation of the fundamental values ​of democracy and will
be held from democratic system itself, looking to take advantage of the extremists. This development
has to be taken by politicians as warning signs seriously.

5
The complexity and multifaceted, intertwined in a globalized world are much higher demands on the
responsible actions of individuals, as was the case in the past. This can lead to a sense of orientation
and helplessness and of being exposed to an impenetrable "system." At the same time a part of the
population see with their concerns and needs of the "big politics" no longer understood or has that
politicians care only about the interests of the "elites" and the mechanisms of demo cracy the impression
- apparently - to kön- contribute anything concrete problem solving local nen. Such a development
involves the risk that the total democracy and the freedom it offers the individual, be underestimated and
human-,

This lack of communication between the oft-quoted "elites" and the "little guy" to make a wide variety of
groups and parties advantage. In a simplified view of the world they suggest that only they are willing or
able to recognize the sorting gen of the population and to solve, so fit precisely to the expectations of
democracy disappointed in themselves.

The promise to give people with seemingly simple solutions again the action sovereignty over their lives,
is a vehicle to bring their ideology bit by bit, to let insidiously seep into the formation of opinion and
democracy into disrepute for extremists. They often put in on issues that are not placed overall at first
glance directly with extremism in conjunction and are also controversial in society. You move here the
limit of thinking and what can be said with the aim to increase acceptance for their ex-extremist
demands. of course they disguise it the fact that in a country as they wish no room for individual
development, their own opinions or the rights of minorities.

The importance of modern media and social networks for this development can not be underestimated
here, but meet them in non-extremists and extremists - the latter not readily apparent - each other. The
so zialen networks greatly favor the formation of echo chambers in which to find like-minded people,
even those with anti-constitutional disposition, together. The constant exchange with like-minded people
can create the impression that the (silent) majority of the population share one's views.

6
In extreme cases, this can for. lead as to the fact that perpetrators from the extreme right or the related
scene believe to enforce an alleged majority will by image reason people because of their outer
appearance, defame their language or religion or attacking. The increasingly open siver expectant
agitation by left-wing extremists against the rule of law, its laws and institutions led some to violence
against state repre- sentatives when lawful acts such. make as deportations or identity checks.

Abandoning the constitutional protection as a genuine early warning system of democracy is to take
politics and the public about the attempts by extremists education to the opinion influence, inform and
indicate dangers that can result from it.

constitutional protection to employees and staff of the Bavarian State Office for encryption and its
President deserve for their commitment to the core values ​of our democracy, our respect and our
recognition.

Dear citizens,

Social media connect millions of people around the world. but they also open up new opportunities for
extremists to make their extremist offerings on the market of opinions connection enabled, beasts to
recruit followers and sympathizers, and to network with each other. The anonymity of the Internet leads
in part to the fact that a delimitation of the language has arrived and incitement and hatred grow.

So therefore the - While it is, for example, the neo-Nazi party, "The Third Way" above all, a kind of
"purity of doctrine": precisely this connectivity is what newer right-wing extremist groupings such as the
"Identitarian movement" (IB) aimed to cultivate nationalist-Nazi ideas and consistently represented -

modern Aktio nen. This makes them want to slip under the erected against right societal threshold. Your
active power does not come as a priority by the actions themselves, but by their media marketing.

Connectivity is also a central aspect in the use of social media by left-wing extremists. They accompany
democratic initiatives and campaigns Towards the right-wing extremism, militarism and gentrification and
aim to redefine these terms and to distinguish itself as a socio-political actors. In connection with the
topic of anti-gentrification go Linksextremis- th violent action against defined by them "co-responsible" of

All mentioned phenomena of time, however, the following applies: In closed circles virtual enemy may

At the scene of the Reich Citizenship and self-manager is particularly clear how important is the
exchange in the digital world for the followers of this ideology. Here they can mutually confirm that a
rogue company "BRD GmbH" exists or an alleged "constitution", for example, from 1871 or 1913,
continuing applies. It becomes dangerous especially when the threshold drops to use violence against
representatives of the Federal Republic of Germany.

Protection of the Constitution has adorned the task of extremists and their ideologies to be identified, to
unmask and present them as what they are: enemies of the constitution that give our country at risk and
aim to undermine the foundations of our democracy and our society, and thus attack.

The Bavarian State Office for the Protection of the Constitution, we have responded to the new
challenges by further strengthens the investigative work on the Internet as well as our education and

1. THE CONSTITUTION PROTECTION AS EARLY

WARNING SYSTEM

The Federal Republic of Germany is a value-bound, alert and defensive

democracy after its constitution. The state can use se- Henen repellents such
against efforts to eliminate the free democratic basic order, the measures in the
Constitution. As a party or club ban.

This presupposes, however, that he would do such efforts or activi- which are
as extremist or anti-constitutional designated net, can detect in time. This is
where the task of the secret one as an early warning system to protect the free
democratic basic order and to protect the existence and security of the federal
government and state governments.

2. LEGAL ORDER

The functions and powers of the secret service are defined by law exactly. The
Federal Constitutional Protection Act (BVerfSchG) governs the federal and
state as part of the secret to fulfilling tasks together and is also the legal basis
for the work of the Federal Office for Constitutional Protection. In addition, there
are special constitutional protection laws in all countries.

In Bavaria, the Bavarian Constitutional Protection Act (BayVSG) govern the

duties and powers of the Bavarian State desamtes for Protection of the
Constitution, which is based in Munich and is directly subordinate to the
Bavarian State Ministry of the Interior, Sports and Integration. the for

supreme court law. So private Lebensgestal- was inter alia to protect the core
area of ​processing and new rules of professional secrecy and create overall a
detailed legal basis for long-term observations. The law also contains
provisions for close cooperation of the secret police and security authorities Si
and clear legal framework conditions for the use of agents and greater
harmonization of regulations with federal law.

For the State Office in the budget in 2018, a total of approx. reported 552
places for civil servants and public employees in the public service. The total
budget in 2018 was around 39 million euros.

The Constitutional Protection collects information on safety and hazardous

anti-constitutional activities domestically and evaluates them. This original
observation mission are essentially

- Efforts that are directed against the free democratic basic order, the
existence or security of the Federation or a Land,

- unsafe or intelligence activities for a foreign power (sabotage and

espionage)
- Aspirations that threaten by use of force or directed at it acts preparatory
foreign interests of the Federal Republic of Germany,

- Aspirations, which can damage against the idea of ​understanding among

nations, especially against the peaceful coexistence of peoples, are addressed,

- Policies and activities of organized crime.

As "aspiration" is defined politically specific, targeted and expedient directed

behavior, which aims to eliminate the existence or security of the Federation or
of a country or constitutional principles of the free democratic basic order or be
put out of validity. Sol che aspirations posed by groups or Einzelperso- nen.

Main focus of the secret is the loading observation of extremist organizations, ie

mainly the analysis of their objectives, activities, strength, structure and

financial circumstances. Also the members and supporters must be recorded

inevitably. But the loading observation by extremist individuals is permitted. As
an extremist or subversive efforts are observed in Bavaria:

- Islamism
- foreigners extremism
- Right-wing
- Reich citizenship and self-managers
- Protection of the Constitution Relevant Islamophobia
- leftism
- Scientology organization.

The observation mission of the secret service also includes extremist activities
on the Internet, for. As in blogs and forums. But here is an "automatic"

operators not legally permissible. Only when a politically motivated, overall the

proportionality. An observation unjustifiable, overriding interest in protecting
freedom-union democratic order is considered by the Federal Constitutional
Court particularly given, when a deputy abused his position to fight the freiheitli-
che democratic order or they fought actively and aggressively. In
implementation of this law, the observation of three members of the AFD after
their election to the Bavarian state parliament has ended the year 2018/2019.

In Bavaria, the fight against organized crime (OC) has since 1994 not only for Organized crime

Another object of the secret is the spy defense, that the defense of espionage

are the political, military technology and business. The Bavarian State Office for
the Protection of the Constitution observed the activities of foreign intelligence
services, collecting informa- tion and analyzes them to z. B. to protect German
companies.

In addition, the Bavarian State Office has the task of granting official
information as part of the loyalty check of applicants for the public service chen
in individual cases for constitutional protection. In addition, it transmits relevant
insights in the context of background checks after the air Safety Act and the
Atomic Energy Act.

3. GATHERING

the Bavarian State Office must to fulfill its legal mandate to collect information
for State Protection and evaluate this information and, if they are necessary,
save. This information is obtained for far primarily made of open sources (eg.,
From the Internet, from newspapers, magazines, pamphlets, programs,
brochures and extremist genetic at public events organizations). Some of the
information received by the Protection of the Constitution by using intelligence
methods. In particular:

- the use of agents (people who sungsschutzbehörde the Constitution itself

does not belong, but because they belong to the respective observation
object "Scene-findings" provide a fee)

- observing suspicious persons (Observation), and

- hidden images and sounds.

Interventions in the privacy of posts and telecommunications (monitoring of the

strict constitutional backups also apply to the use of technical means in
residential and business premises as well as for the concealed access to
information technology systems. Such measures must be carried out on the
orders of a judge.

4. CONTROL OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL

PROTECTION

The activities of the Bavarian Constitutional protection is subject egg ner

the reporting obligation of the responsible Minister in relation to the parliament
within the framework of parliamentary questions, petitions etc. A special
committee of the Bavarian parliament, the parliamentary oversight committee

shall review the measures for monitoring of postal and telecommunications as
well as the reliability and necessity of the information obligations of postal and
telecommunications service providers.

The administrative control is up to the ministers in the framework of the

administrative and technical supervision, and also the Bavarian state
commissioned ten for Data Protection and the Bavarian Obers- Court. These
checks are complemented by the ability to onerous measures, the
administrative tribunals to call. Finally, an inspection by the public is on the
Medienberichterstat- instead tung.

5. COOPERATION WITH THE POLICE

The protection of state and constitution police and domestic intelligence work
closely together. The police and domestic intelligence agencies, however, are
separated from each other, constitutional protection authorities must be
affiliated with any police Dienststel- le (organizational principle of separation).
Task of the police is the prevention of threats as well as the investigation of
crimes. It has intervention and coercive powers (z. B. arrests, searches,
confiscate loading, etc.) and must intervene as soon as it receives evidence of
crimes.

Protection of the Constitution, however, is responsible for the run-up to

enlightenment and has no coercive powers and not issue instructions right
opposite the police (law delegating Trennungsge- bot). Has the constitutional
protection sufficient evidence that make a security-legal intervention is required,
under- condemn the competent security authority. This will then decide
independently whether and what action should be taken.

this exchange of information is limited, however, by so-called. "informational

separation principle." This is based on egg nem judgment of the Federal
Constitutional Court in 2013. The court stated that, because of the various
tasks of the police and domestic intelligence agencies and the different powers
Information constitutional protection by the encryption exceeded the police only
in significant cases may be averages. Therefore, the BayVSG as BVerfSchG
contains exactly very differentiated arrangements for onsübermittlung of
information to the police.

6. INFORMATION AND PREVENTION

Protection of the Constitution has to inform the mission of the government and
parliament and the public about activities and goats le anti-constitutional
organizations. To DIE sem purpose published the Bavarian Ministry of the
Interior, Sports and Integration in collaboration with the State Office for the

They insist on a strict reading of the Koran, which is independent of time and

The Islamist "Milli Gorus" movement is a collective term ting followers of the
late 27 February 2011 Turkish politician Prof. Dr. Necmettin Erbakan. The aim
of the move- ment is first the secular state system (separation of church and
state) in Turkey with an Islamic state and social order with the Koran and the
unrestricted validity of the Sharia as the basis of the state and social life
replace.

Its stated long-term objective is also the global launch of an Islamic state and
social order along the lines of the old Ottoman Empire, led by the door kei. The
efforts of the "Milli Gorus" movement directed against the free democratic order
and against the principles of international understanding.

The "Milli Gorus" movement was founded in the late 1960s by the Turkish
politician Necmettin Erbakan. Central role in Erbakan's political thinking have
influenced him keywords "Milli Gorus" (National Vision) and "Adil Düzen" (just
fine). After the devel- of Erbakan oped ideology the world is divided into two
parts: on the one hand to the foot of religious-Islamic order on the Word of God
( "Adil Düzen"), on the other hand, in the Western order of violence and
oppression ( "Batil Düzen" = worthless Order). It was necessary to replace the Adil Düzen /
Western order by a "just order" for which the orientation of Islamic principles BatilDüzen concept
instead of man-made and therefore "arbitrary rules" was needed.

Overall, the "Adil Düzen" concept with the Grundprinzipi- s the free democratic
basic order is incompatible: the introduction of an Islamic social order would
end the principle of separation of powers, the rule of law, judicial independence
and the principle of democracy loading. The orientation of the "Milli Gorus"
movement to a sultan-like Turkish leaders figure shows nationalist dictator toric
trains and contradicts the republican structure of Germany as well as the
principle of democracy. In addition, the "Milli Gorus" movement represents an
anti-Semitism that leads to egg ner exclusionary discrimination against the
