Political life

Kanther was a member of the Hessian state parliament from 1974 to 1993. In July 1993 he resigned from the Hessian Landtag and assumed as Minister of the Interior as the successor of Rudolf Seiters.[1] The same year he ordered the prohibition of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) for attacks against Turkish facilities.[2] During his tenure he had to deal with violence of the Red Army Faction and opposed the dual citizenship.[1] In 1994, he was elected into the Bundestag as representative for Hanau ballot.[1] The Government of Helmut Kohl was narrowly re-elected and he assumed a second term as Minister of the Interior.[1] He was involved in reforms for the policy regarding the asylum seekers and a for foreigners minor to sixteen years old, a compulsory visa was introduced.[1] He re-entered the Bundestag in 1998 via the CDU's statewide candidate ballot.[1]

Manfred Kanther was involved in the 2000 donation scandal of the Hessian CDU and stepped down from the Bundestag in January 2000. In April 2005, Kanther was sentenced to 18 months on probation by the Landgericht Wiesbaden for acting in unfaithfulness. The Bundesgerichtshof, however, declared the sentence void in late 2006 and sent the case back to the Landgericht Wiesbaden for further hearings.[3] His sentence was subsequently reduced to a fine of 54,000 €.
