Police fail to investigate cases, ghetto law under scrutiny and social media ban for under 15s

Police fail to investigate cases, ghetto law under scrutiny and social media ban for under 15s

This week on The Danish Connection:

We talk about Denmark's controversial 'ghetto law' which has been brought to the European Court of Justice, with residents of Mjølnerparken arguing that the policy discriminates based on ethnicity. As the case moves to the Danish courts, we look at what is happening in Mjølnerparken now, from gang violence and pressuring renters to leave to broader questions about integration and gentrification.

We discuss a huge scandal unfolding in the media right now: a major government audit has revealed that Danish police have been closing thousands of cases without investigation while telling victims otherwise. We break down how this practice, known internally as 'case washing', came to light, what the findings show and what it could mean for trust in Danish institutions going forward.

We talk about a proposed EU ban on social media for children. With Denmark among the countries pushing for stronger regulation, we unpack what this could look like in practice and the role of tech platforms in young people’s lives.

As always you can find us on Spotify, Apple Podcasts or by simply clicking the link in bio.
