“You can invent a metal detector that finds corona viruses,” eight-year-old Benjamin from Switzerland sent an email to the German Federal Police in Constance. This made the letter public on Tuesday.
Benjamin’s motivation: «So that people can cross the border. Then I can go back to my grandma. » According to the federal police, Benjamin has a terrible longing for his grandmother, who lives on the border and whom he is not allowed to visit because of the current situation.
Police respond
As the “Stuttgart newspaper” reported, the boy had asked his mother to send the request by email to the appropriate office.
Although the federal police have their hands full at the moment, they took the time to answer (the whole answer at the top of the picture). In it, they thank you for the tip and write that unfortunately they too are currently not allowed to visit their grandmothers and grandpas. But that’s also the way to protect them. After all, you could still write letters and make phone calls. «But of course we all hope that we can soon live as before. And can hug us. And as a policeman, I promise you that it will happen again, »it continues. You just need patience.
