The government announces in a press release that it plans to tighten the deportation rules for foreign citizens who have been sentenced to prison - regardless of how long they have been in the country.
- Foreigners in Denmark are unfortunately overrepresented in the crime statistics and too often commit serious crime, such as that connected to gang activity. We must not accept that. The hammer must fall even harder, says the country's social democratic immigration and integration minister Kaare Dybvad Bek.
Currently, a longer prison sentence is required to deport a person who has lived in Denmark for a long time, but this is now to be changed. The government proposes that all foreign citizens who are sentenced to unconditional prison sentences should be able to be deported, regardless of how long they have spent in the country or how long the sentence is. The only exception is if an expulsion would violate Denmark's international obligations.
- Every criminal alien deported by Denmark is a victory for the legal community and a victory for our country, says Kaare Dybvad Bek.
