KD wants to revive the Reva project with tighter internal controls on foreigners, says party leader Ebba Busch in an interview with Today’s news.
According to KD’s proposal for “Reva 2.0”, the police must fingerprint, photograph and DNA-test the person being checked during an internal alien check.
The police must also be given the opportunity to confiscate and empty mobile phones and computers if the person refuses to cooperate.
The stricter controls on foreigners were heavily criticized when the project was carried out and the police were accused of racial profiling.
Busch believes that there was justified criticism, even if some was “lashed with political overtones”. She does not share the view that the police made their selection based on appearance.
