BERLIN Russell Wilson Seahawks Jersey , Jan. 27 (Xinhua) -- The German cabinet approved a draft law on Wednesday aimed at swifter deportation of criminal foreigners.
The legislation, principally authored by German justice minister Heiko Maas and interior minister Thomas de Maiziere, is designed to lower hurdles for deporting foreigners, including asylum seekers and refugees, who are sentenced to imprisonment or youth custody for causing bodily harm, resisting the orders of police officers, sex-related crimes, or the violation of personal property.
Whether or not the sentence is suspended on probation will play no role, according to the law.
In addition, Berlin intends to act more strictly than in the past in denying asylum seekers refugee status if they are sentenced to at least one year imprisonment due to the above-mentioned criminal offences.
The draft law follows recent revelations that many of the men who perpetrated a string of sexual assaults in the German city of Cologne on New Year's Eve were principally foreigners.
Maas said Wednesday that the move was not targeted at asylum seekers. On the contrary, ""this also serves to protect the hundreds of thousands of refugees who live completely blameless among us. They do not deserve to be thrown in the same pot as criminals,"" he added.

ANKARA, Dec. 12 (Xinhua) -- Turkey's gross domestic product (GDP) fell by 1.8 percent in the third quarter of 2016 compared to the same quarter of the previous year, the Turkish Statistical Institute (Turkstat) said in a statement on Monday.
It marks the first year-on-year decline in quarterly economic growth since 2009, local Hurriyet Daily News reported.
This followed growth of 3.1 percent in the second quarter of the year, according to official data.
GDP stood at 655.4 billion Turkish liras (186.5 billion U.S. dollars) at current prices.
On the expenditure side, household spending dropped by 3.2 percent in contrast to a 3.7 percent rise in the second quarter. Exports also plunged 7 percent, while imports climbed 4.3 percent.
The production-side breakdown of the GDP showed that the agriculture sector shrank 7.7 percent and industry output fell 1.4 percent. In the meantime, services output dropped sharply by 8.4 percent.
The last time Turkish economy shrank was in the third quarter of 2009 with a 2.8 percent decrease in GDP.
Turkstat also changed its calculation method by switching into the chain linked volume index, revising its second-quarter growth to 4.5 percent from 3.1 percent and first-quarter growth to 4.5 percent from 4.7 percent.
The Turkish currency on Monday extended its losses to trade against the U.S. dollar at 3.5252 after the GDP data was out.
Deputy Prime Minister Mehmet Simsek said Monday that the July 15 coup attempt and terror attacks put Turkey's economy under pressure.
"Turkish economy grew by 2.2 percent in the first nine months of the year. A visible slow-down in global trade, a decline in capital flow into emerging markets and the ongoing geopolitical tensions had an impact on our growth in the third quarter," he added in a written statement.
Finance Minister Naci Agbal said government measures to boost growth and structural reforms will be carried out, and positive global developments will contribute to higher growth in 2017.
Jeremy Renner plays a fish and wildlife agent in a Wyoming Native American reservation in the film “Wind River.”
FOR Taylor Sheridan, the West is still alive with frontier tragedies and genre thrills, even if hopelessness has moved in and blanketed the land.
“Wind River” makes it a kind of trilogy for Sheridan, the writer behind the West Texas neo-Western “Hell or High Water” and the Mexican border drug crime drama “Sicario.” In “Wind River,” he shifts to a Wyoming Native American reservation and behind the camera, but the atmosphere is still rich and familiar: big open spaces with misery all around.
Whereas the Oscar-nominated “Hell or High Water” had a bright, comic punch, “Wind River” is more in the heavily somber register of “Sicario.” When one father who has lost a daughter consoles another, he advises him to confront the heartache head-on: “Take the pain.” It’s something of a mission statement for Sheridan, whose neo-Westerns are filled with deeply burdened men making painful sacrifices.
Sheridan’s latest (his second time directing following the little-seen 2011 horror film “Vile”) is set around the Wind River Reservation in a wintery Wyoming where, as one character says, “snow and silence are the only things that haven’t been taken.” The reservation, shrouded in violence, drugs and poverty, is an ominous place.
It’s there that Corey Lambert (Jeremy Renner) discovers a freshly frozen body five miles (8.05 kilometers) into the mountains. He is a fish and wildlife agent who spends most of his time defending livestock by shooting predators with a rifle. Mountain lions nabbing cattle is what brought him, by snow mobile, to the remote crime site. The body, an 18-year-old Native American girl named Natalie (Kelsey Asbille) is barefoot, despite the snow and the cold, and she’s been raped. Her lungs, Lambert guesses, eventually froze and burst as she fled from miles away.
The investigation, though, is for the FBI. The agency is so thin in rural Wyoming that it dispatches an agent from Las Vegas: Jane Banner (Elizabeth Olsen) who lacks even a good enough winter coat. But Banner quickly shows her strengths and intelligently conscripts Lambert, an experienced tracker, to aid her.
The dead girl is revealed to be the daughter of a close friend of Lambert’s (Gil Birmingham). Birmingham, whose too-brief performance is one of noble weariness, is one of many Native Americans who populate the cast and lend “Wind River” both excellent acting and ethnic authenticity.
