In the hours before it closed yesterday,\u00a0around 300 people gathered to protest the G\u00f6rlitzer Park fence.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The protest remained peaceful, with one person was arrested\u00a0on suspicion of physical assault. One speaker also announced that the ordinance to close the park will be taken to court.<\/p>\n<p>A representative of the Greens moderated\u00a0some of the demonstration.\u00a0The people gathered for a concert under the motto \u201cRave against the fence\u201d, at which about 200 police forces were deployed. They held banners including the phrase \u201cKai Wegner lies to you\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The fence has proven very controversial, with many speaking out against it as an effective measure to stop crime in\u00a0G\u00f6rlitzer Park. However,\u00a0CDU Interior Expert Burkard Dregger defended the nightly closure to rbb this morning.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He said that the park had long been a drug trading location yet admitted that drug trafficking may now be pushed onto the surrounding streets. They will also act against it, as that is the task of politics, he claimed. A scientific evaluation will investigate the effectiveness of the nightly closure with results available by the end of the year.<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rbb24.de\/panorama\/beitrag\/2026\/01\/kommentar-stromausfall-berlin-krisenmanagement.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"IMAGO \/\u00a0dts news agency Monday, March 2 From 10 pm on Sunday evening, police officers guarded the entrances,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":31338,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[99],"tags":[112,190,18703,18704,38,4412],"class_list":["post-31337","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-berlin","tag-berlin","tag-germany","tag-gorlitzer-park","tag-gorlitzer-park-fence","tag-news","tag-protest"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31337","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31337"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31337\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31338"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31337"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31337"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31337"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
