The overall news was good as Interior Minister Horst Seehofer and Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV) President Hans-Georg Maassen presented their report on Tuesday for 2017.
Politically motivated crimes in Germany declined by 4.9 percent over 2016 from 41,549 to 39,505. Far-right extremist crimes also declined by an impressive 35 percent, although their numbers remain higher than in 2014, the year before the so-called migrant crisis.

The report also noted slight rises in the number of Islamists, particularly Salafists, whom Maassen characterized as a “continual high-level threat.” Some 700 “Gefährder,” people kept under constant surveillance because they represent an acute threat, are currently living in Germany. That, said Seehofer, was “more than ever before.”
