So they did - the friends of the constitution were monitored!

Despite our peaceful commitment to fundamental rights and democratic processes, the Swiss intelligence service classified our organisation as a "threat". A request for information should bring clarity.

In the SRF Arena on 21 May 2021, during the discussion about the Terrorism Act (PMT)said Federal Councillor Karin Keller-Sutter to Michael Bubendorf (former member of the FdV):

💬 "You're criticising the Federal Council, that's absolutely legitimate. You're not a terrorist. You're certainly not on the radar."

Today we know: This statement was wrong.

Surveillance by the FIS

Research by the World Week show that the Federal Intelligence Service (FIS) supervised our organisation. The Federal risk management even categorised us as "Danger" although we fought peacefully for basic rights and actively participated in democratic processes such as referendums.

The fact that the FIS categorised such activists as a threat and collected data is a Direct interference with civil rights - and shows a considerable Potential for misuse of the secret service for political purposes.

Request for information submitted

In order to obtain clarity about the stored data, we have created a Request for information to the FIS. We want to know what information was collected about us and on what basis this was done.

A state that monitors its citizens because they Defending fundamental rightsviolates exactly what he actually should protect.

✊ We demand Transparency!
