Bundeskriminalamt (BKA)
Amendment to the BKA Law
Amendment to the BKA Law expanding jurisdiction significantly: With the amended BKA Law, the Bundeskriminalamt becomes the central information and communications office for the German police. It is given original investigative jurisdiction for offences involving drugs, weapons and counterfeit currency, for politically motivated attacks on constitutional organs of the Federal Government, their members and foreign diplomatic representations, as well as preventive police powers for personal protection tasks. In addition, the tasks of the "Protection Group" Division are laid down in the law and the BKA is given the mandate to carry out forensic science research as well as criminalistic-criminological research.
