Germany: Syrian “Youths” Attack Couple, When Wife Refuses To “Show Respect”

Mayor Shocked After Knife Attack

Cottbus. Without any apparent reason, in front of a shopping centre, three youths attacked a married couple with a knife. Mayor Holger Kelch (CDU) is shocked.
By Rüdiger Hofmann

As police announce, Friday, just after 4 PM, a 51-year-old and his 43-year-old wife from Cottbus wanted to visit the Blechen-Carré on Karl-Liebknecht-Straße, when they were attacked by three Syrian youths aged 14, 15 and 17. They demanded precedence, says police spokesman Ines Filohn. They also demanded that the woman should show respect to them. When the woman refused to do so, the youths attacked her husband.

Two of them physically attacked the man and tried to push him over. Another from the group produced a knife. In this moment, a brave passer-by intervened and helped the husband. “With his courageous help, the man prevented worse from happening” says Ines Filohn. The security staff who were called seized the three suspects and held them until police arrived.

Mayor Holger Kelch is shocked: “It is appalling, and not tolerable for us as a city, and a state under the rule of law, what happened in these first days of January in Cottbus. Violence is not a way to encourage or resolve conflicts. My sympathies are with the aggrieved parties, I hope they get well soon and will be able to get over these experiences.”

Kelch and the police hope that the courageous passer-by will get into contact to support the investigations as a witness. “As a witness, he can call the phone number 0355 4937 1227 at the Cottbus police office, or any other police inspection“, says police spokesman Ines Filohn. According to our enquiry, as of Sunday, he has not yet contacted police.

“The lawful state will have to bare teeth, even if some lawsuits can be arduous and tedious”, says Holger Kelch. “I have appointed a meeting of the responsible administrative sectors, to discuss the situation. If we are responsible for the custodianship, we will do everything in our power, to make it clear to the youths which values and rules prevail in Germany and in Cottbus, and that they have to adhere to them. We will also contact the parents, to make it clear to them that their children’s behaviour will not remain without consequence”, says Kelch. “We will not have our city’s progress ruined by such incidents.”

In the meantime, witnesses were found, and surveillance recordings and the knife secured. The 14-year-old is already known to the police as a violent offender. The youths were handed over to their legal guardians. Criminal police begun investigations for dangerous battery. As the three suspects are minors, they will be tried under youth criminal law.

In general, attacks by foreign fellow citizens seem to become more frequent lately. “At least, this is the felt sense”, says Ines Filohn. “For exact numbers, we will have to wait for the analysis of the criminal statistics, which we will have in spring”, says the police spokesman.

Germany: Violent Clashes Between Locals And Refugees in Saxon Small Town

An original translation from Leipziger Volkszeitung (note the bias of the article, even though the refugees were armed, and the people who needed medical treatment were the Germans):

Wurzen: Five Wounded In Clashes At The Asylum Accommodation in Dresdner Straße

In Wurzen, on Friday evening, two groups, young Germans and foreigners massively clashed. Two men were wounded gravely in this. Prior, allegedly, refugees were pursued and threatened. State Protection is investigating for a xenophobic background.

January 13., 2018

Wurzen/Leipzig. Five people were wounded Friday night in violent clashes at a residence inhabited by refugees in Wurzen, two of them gravely. According to police investigations, about 30 young Germans clashed with a smaller group of foreigners. Two of the Germans were gravely injured by knife stabs into the upper legs, police announce on Saturday. Additionally, three people in the asylum seeker accommodation in Dresdner Straße were lightly injured, said police spokesman Andreas Loepki to Leipziger Volkszeitung. Police currently cannot rule out a xenophobic background. Already last year, police had to intervene in clashes between asylum seekers and Germans.

After the attack, Germans storm refugee accommodation
The confrontations lasted for about an hour and triggered a large action by the police. 30 to 40 officers were in action from 10:40 PM on. From what is known from witnesses’ accounts at the moment, it all started with a verbal argument between the two groups at the park at the train station, followed by a chain of assaults. The asylum seekers withdrew into their residence in Dresdner Straße. „Subsequently, two Germans walked up to the residence, banged against the door, and damaged a glass“, reports Loepki.

A smaller number of refugees then chased the two Germans, but turned around when they found themselves facing a group of 30 persons. „Due to their appearance, the foreigners – pursued – went back to their accommodation, which shortly after was left by probably twelve inhabitants, armed with knives and clubs“, says Loepki. In the ensuing clash, two Germans suffered knife wounds in the upper thigh. A taser was used, too, apparently. Several Germans subsequently stormed the residence where further clashes occurred.

No arrests made
To part the rival groups, all patrol officers from Grimma precinct were summoned, and forces from Leipzig were called to Grimma. The officers asserted the identities of those involved on-site. There were no arrests made. It was still unclear who committed the attacks. This needs to be proven in each individual case, says Loepki. Witnesses are being questioned on that.

The cause of the clashes will hopefully be determined in the investigations, which have been opened for particularly severe breach of the peace of the land. State Protection, too, has become involved in the case. An extremist and racist background of the deeds is probed.

Already in June [2017], clashes between Germans and asylum seekers in Wurzen led to a large police action. Back then, approximately 100 persons had congregated on the town’s market square, and shouted slogans in front of a residence in Wenceslaigasse. Prior to that, residents of the house had physically attacked two locals*.

In June 2017 in Wurzen, two locals complained to five refugees who were playing loud music after midnight and disturbing the night’s peace. In response to that, the refugees attacked the men with wooden folding chairs, wounding them so badly that they needed treatment in the hospital. The next day, about 100 people gathered on the market square and “shouted slogans”. “Police prevent attack on asylum seekers in Wurzen”, Leipziger Volkszeitung, June 12, 2017.

Hamburg Knife Attacker Pleads Guilty: “I Wanted To Kill As Many German Christians As Possible”

The trial of the Palestinian “refugee” who went on a stabbing spree in Hamburg, wounding six and killing one, on July 27, 2017, has begun on Friday.

An original translation from B.Z. (Berliner Zeitung):

Man Pleads Guilty

Knife-Stabber of Hamburg-Barmbek Confesses

Knife attacker Ahmad Alhaw in court

January 12., 2018

At the opening of the trial of a knife-attack in Hamburg-Barmbek, the accused Palestinian confesses. The deed was religiously motivated: He wanted to kill as many German Christians as possible.

About five months after the knife attack in a supermarket in Hamburg with one dead and six wounded, the accused Palestinian confessed the bloody deed.

The attorney of the rejected asylum seeker read out a confession at the opening of the trial at the Senate for the Protection of the State in the Hamburg Higher Regional Court. “He emphatically pleads guilty on all charges”, he explained. “The deeds had, in his view, a religious background”.

Murder as many German Christians as possible
According to the Federal Attorney, the perpetrator acted out of an islamistic mindset. He wanted to kill as many German citizens of Christian faith as possible. The representative of the Federal Attorney said, reading out the indictment: “He made this decision as a contribution to worldwide Jihad.”

Prosecution deem him fully criminally liable and accuse Ahmad A. of murder, attempted murder, and grievous battery in six cases.

His attorney said that his client was under high pressure when he committed the deeds. Ahmad A. further declared that he was not going to answer questions to the details of the deeds.

Instead, he answered questions about his vita. He started studying dental medicine, but quitted. His mother was a teacher. He came to Germany to work and to make a living. Also, the Western lifestyle was a reason, in the beginning. But then he didn’t get along with it. “I had the impression that I wasn’t welcome”, he said, according to an interpreter who was translating from Arabic.

He refused to answer questions regarding the consummation of alcohol or drugs, just as questions about his turn towards religion and about ISIS. He also refused to comment on his statements in his first interrogations. “In the first three days, I was wounded, and unable to concentrate.”

The rejected asylum seeker had stabbed a 50-year-old to death in an Edeka supermarket, and then wounded six more people. A small, self-made ISIS flag was found in his refugee accommodation. But the terror militia did not claim the knife attack.

Translator’s note:

This following photo of the “person who lost his life” was not part of the above article. Matthias P., 50 years old, was shopping for groceries in the Edeka store, when Ahmad Alhaw randomly attacked him without prior warning:

Sympathies for ISIS, Sharia Police, and Missing Teenage Girl Converts – What’s Trending in Al’ Lemania Today

1. 1 in 3 Muslim students in Germany willing to fight and die for Islam

A survey of schools in the German region of Lower Saxony has shown that close to 10 per cent of Muslim students have direct sympathies for radical Islamic groups like Islamic State and some even support acts of terrorism.
One in three of the Muslim students who responded to the survey said that they would be willing to fight and die for Islam.

Twenty-seven per cent said they agreed with the statement: “The Islamic laws of Sharia, according to which, for example, adultery or homosexuality are severely punished, are much better than the German laws.

2. German Court Overturns Sharia Police Acquittal

Germany’s Federal Court of Justice ruled Thursday that a regional court had erred when deciding in November 2016 to acquit the Muslim vigilantes, because the chamber had not examined the impact of the vigilantes’ actions on the public.

The case revision had been sought by public prosecutors.

The seven men, put initially on trial in Wuppertal for falsely wearing uniforms, had patrolled the western German city of Wuppertal at night in September 2014, wearing orange warning vests bearing the words “Sharia Police.”

The Wuppertal regional court subsequently ruled that the vigilantes had not broken German law simply by approaching people while wearing the emblazoned vests.

3. Convert Teen Who Had Gone Missing Surfaced in Algeria

A Hamburg teenage girl named Juliane Hippel, who had fallen in love with an Algerian “refugee”, and disappeared after his deportation, seems to have surfaced in Algeria. According to her father, she has called him. Police Germany have been searching for the girl since December 2.

In her father’s words:

„Suddenly she walked around with headscarf and long rags. She used to be a normal teenager, went to dance class,  and swimming, and wanted to become a veterinarian.“

According to Bild, her best friend says:

“Jule blundered into this. She thought the Koran and all that was cool. She just didn’t like that Morchid beat her in public.”

Let’s hope that the Germans get her out there, in case her feelings for Morchid should wane (or maybe just her senses come back), and she might decide to leave him. We have documented too many cases of Sharia “break-ups”.

 

Viktor Orbán to German press: “We do not view these people as Muslim refugees. We view them as Islamic invaders.”

Bild Deutschland, January 8, 2018 – page 2

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán in an interview with BILD

“It Was You Who Wanted The Migrants – Not Us”

By N. Blome, Ch. Stenzel and D. Biskup (photos)

He is controversial in Europe, but guest of honor in Bavaria, at the CSU convention in Seeon. Bild interview with the Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán (54).

Bild: Mr. Orbán, Social Democrat chief Martin Schulz demanded that the CSU chief Seehofer should put you in your place.

Viktor Orbán: I have always had great respect for Martin Schulz, because he is a good fighter. But to be amusing as a fighter, and to carry the responsibility for shaping the politics of a country are two different things. What was fine and nice in Brussels – where there are no visible consequences – is a different story than being the chief of a party in Germany and communicating with other countries. We think we deserve more respect.

“We do not want to be coerced”

Bild: For what?

Orbán: Hungary is one of the few stories of success of the last decade. Successful West, poor East – those times are over. 2010, when I went into office, the unemployment rate was 12 percent. Now, it is 4 percent. The economic growth is more than 4 percent, 2009 it still was minus 6 percent. The household deficit is notably lower than 3 percent. If you fairly assess us, we are doing quite well.

Bild: But that is not what the criticism was about. How fair is it, to be a member of the EU but not to stick by the rules? Hungary was supposed to accept only 1294 refugees. You refused, went to the European court, lost, called the verdict “a shame”, and still refused.

Orbán: More than 20 states did not adhere to the quota, yet, it is only we who are being criticized, this is a case of applying double standards. The fact is that the verdict only referred to the EU resolution that basically expired at the same time… there must be new discussions.

Bild: Would you, otherwise, have accepted the verdict and accepted the refugees?

Orbán: Yes. We stand on the basis of the rule of law.

Bild: But the EU is not only based on law, but also on solidarity. Why can Germany accept 2 million refugees, while Hungary can’t accept 2,000?

“Christian and Islamic society will never blend”

Orbán: The difference is: It was you who wanted the migrants. Not us. We do our job by protecting the Schengen outer border with Serbia. This has cost us about 1 billion Euros additionally since 2015, and Brussels is not paying a single cent for that. The solution to the problem certainly isn’t to distribute people, who reside in the EU illegally, across the whole EU territory. We think one should help where the problem lies, and not take immigration here.

Bild: Why don’t the Hungarians want refugees? 

Orbán: We do not view these people as Muslim refugees. We view them as Islamic invaders. For example, in order to arrive in Hungary, from Syria, you have to cross four countries, all of them not as rich as Germany, but stable. So, already there, they aren’t running for their lives. This, too, proves that they are economic migrants, looking for a better life.

Bild: You say that you represent the will of the Hungarian people.

Orbán: I can only speak for the Hungarian people, and they don’t want migration. According to my understanding, it is not possible that the people have an opinion about such a profound topic, and the government refuses to act accordingly. We are talking about the sovereignty and the cultural identity of the country. We need to reserve the right to decide who can live on Hungarian territory.

Bild: No Muslims, apparently…

Orbán: We believe that a high number of Muslims necessarily leads to parallel societies, as Christian and Muslim society will never blend. Multiculturalism is just an illusion. We don’t want such a thing. And we don’t want to be coerced. Take Budapest as a positive example: a cosmopolitan melting pot without parallel societies.

Syrian Hairdresser Who Was Touted As Model Refugee, Then Slit German Salon Owner’s Throat- Turns Out It Wasn’t His Hairdressing Skills That Got Him Hired

Do you remember this story? Mohammad will style your hair – and slit your throat.

In short: Ilona Fugmann decided to give Mohammad, the handsome Syrian refugee, a position in her hair salon. His “skills had immediately convinced her.” The whole town was amazed, and he was touted across the nation as a role model for integration.

Ilona Fugmann (m.), the chief of the local job center (l.), and two integration helpers (r.) show their model refugee to the press.

Then, much to everyone’s surprise, one day, he attempted to slit his bosses’ throat, wounding her badly. The case is in court right now.

It turns out, Mrs. Fugmann wasn’t speaking of Mohammad’s hairdresser skills. And, Mohammad hadn’t accidentally come to her salon looking for a job, like she told the press last year, either. But see for yourself.

An original translation from Lausitzer Rundschau:

The Syrian Hairdresser’s Victim Testifies

January 4, 2018
Cottbus/Herzberg. First witness hearing in the court case on the murder attempt by a Syrian hairdresser on his female boss. By Christian Taubert

On Thursday, the first witnesses were heard at the district court in the case of the attempted murder by the Syrian hairdresser Mohammad H. on Ilona F. from Herzberge. But observers of the case were denied to hear how the victim, the owner of a hair and cosmetics salon in the district town of Elbe Elster, described the attack with a razor blade in June 2017. The court had followed the attorney’s request for private hearing. Lawyer Claudia Napiralski pointed out in her reasoning for the request that her client suffered from constant panic attacks since the knife attack which caused cut wounds in the neck, breasts and stomach, and from post traumatic stress syndrome. She also described that Ilona F. had come in for “Emails that aren’t pretty”, since three days before Christmas when the trial had started, when it became public that the defendant had admitted consuming drugs, and an affair with his boss, to the police. All this, so the lawyer, had the potential to harm her client.

While Ilona F. was in the courtroom, describing for more than two hours her view of the events of June 28, 2017, the day of the deed, and her relationship towards refugee Mohammad H., her husband Michael F. told the media representatives in the waiting room his version.

Together with his wife, and with the help of the refugee helper organization, in 2016, he searched for an Arab hairdresser, to offer something special to the customers of the region. He thought that he had found him in Mohammad H.

But soon, it became apparent, that, in contrast to the other Syrian refugees accommodated in his apartments in Herzberge,  Mohammad had no interest in learning German. “I knew that he wasn’t a good employee, but I did not want to drop him” said Michael F. Mohammed H. only delivered good work on 4 of the 100 work days. “His level was that of fourth or fifth grade special-needs school”. Even without the attack on his wife, “I would have given him notice to quit the apartment”, said F. After one year, it looked as if the apartment had been inhabited for twelve years. He never saw that share of the rent that wasn’t paid by the welfare office.

What had, until now, been presented as a successful example of integration in Herzberge, turned out, according to the testimony of Ilona F.’s husband in the witness stand, the complete opposite.

On payday, the Syrians took the train to Berlin, said Michael F., alluding to the purchasing of drugs. The Syrian Y., who later was heard as a witness, confirmed the abuse of drugs. He confirmed that on the day of the deed, he was smoking hashish with the defendant who is on trial for attempted murder and grievous battery, before both left the apartment of Mohammad H. and went to Ilona F.’s cosmetics salon.

There, they smoked another joint, until the future victim arrived at the upper floor of the salon. According to 22-year-old Y., he went downstairs to smoke a cigarette. Only when he heard screaming, he ran upstairs. The floor wa full of blood, and Mohammad H. was holding the victim by her hair and pushing her to the ground. Y. pulled him away and downstairs. In doing so, the suspect bit him and yelled to let him go back into the house.

Witness Marlies L., who was the last customer of Ilona F. on that day, confirmed the loud cries from the upper floor, and the cry: “Help me!”. On the stairs, the salon owner approached her bleeding strongly, the two Syrians were already in front of the salon. “He wanted to kill me”, Ilona F. yelled, according to the witness. Y. had saved her. Marlies L. locked the door to the outside and gave first aid, until paramedics and police arrived.

When victim Ilona F. left the courtroom after her testimonial, she said to friends: “I feel relieved”. Just what she meant by that remained behind closed doors.

Translator’s thoughts:
Normally, I object to victim-blaming. In view of how intense the brainwashing is in Germany, it does not seem right to seek fault with a 15 year old girl who goes out with an Afghan refugee.
But in this case, Mr. and Mrs. Fugmann were cashing in on the refugee crisis (“the other Syrian refugees accommodated in his apartments”). They hired Mohammad as a prop to virtue-signal and have a competitive edge over other salons, paraded him to the press like an exotic pet, and fed the public a whole bunch of lies.
It is amusing and somewhat fitting that Mr. Fugmann also appears to be a cuck.

Germany: Leftists Protest Silent March For Murdered Teen Girl

On Tuesday evening, between 400 and 600 Germans attended a silent march for the teenage girl who was stabbed to death by an allegedly only 15-year-old Afghan refugee in the town of Kandel.

Mia, the 15-year-old girl who was fatally stabbed by an Afghan “refugee” last week

About 30 leftists protested and attacked the mourners. They waited at the drugstore where the murder took place, and when the march arrived, held up rainbow-striped umbrellas, to protest “for a colorful Germany”. Shuffling and poking with umbrellas ensued. Police removed the leftists.

The local press reported that the march was “far right”, but local police refuted that and pointed out that it was “ordinary citizens”. According to police, as the march went on, more and more passers-by joined in.

 

Berlin: “You Unbeliever!” – Syrian Attacks Subway Passengers With Knife

An original translation from Die Welt. Incidents like these do not even make it to the front pages anymore, it is just the new German normal.

Man Attacks With Knife – Police Look Into Islamist background

January 02., 2018

On Silvester day [New Year’s Eve], a 23-year-old Syrian attacked a man in the Berlin subway and yelled at him: “You Unbeliever.” The man and all further victims were Germans. Now, the Land Office for Criminal Investigations investigates.

A 23-year-old attacked several people with a knife in Berlin-Schöneberg. This wounded a 50-year-old lightly. The intelligence service of the Land Office for Criminal Investigations is looking into whether there is an Islamistic background, a police spokesman announced upon our enquiry on Tuesday. The man from Syria was „mentally instable“. „Tagesspiegel“ had reported on the case.

The 21-year-old Syrian assaulted several people on Silvester day in the subway station Bayerischer Platz. Accordingly, he first asked the 50-year-old if he was a Turk.

When the man denied, he yelled “You unbeliever” and stabbed at him with the knife. The man suffered slight cutting wounds, but did not want medical treatment. The other people who were attacked were Germans, too.

Due to the confused mental state he was in, the 23-year-old was taken to a hospital and afterwards to a jail hospital. A detention order has already been issued.

Germany Sees 10% Rise In Violent Crime, Entirely Due To “Refugees” – National TV Blames It On Racism

A new representative study in Lower Saxony finds that violent crime has risen by 10%. A staggering 92% of this increase is caused by “refugees” alone. They make just 1.9% of the population.

“Violent Crime in Lower Saxony. +10.4%, 92.1% refugees (orange). Trend before 2015: -24% (blue). Source: Police Crime Statistics (PKS)” Source: ZDF heute

The authors argue that Lower Saxony is representative and that their findings can be generalized and applied to Germany as a whole.

Before 2015, Germany saw a continuous downward trend in violent crime, with a decrease of -21.9% over the last decade.

You would think that this might be a wake-up call. Wrong. National television ARD tell us why this is:

Racism.

“If Peter is attacked by Paul, he is likely to report it by 13 percent. But if he is attacked by Mehmet or Igor, he is likely to report it by 27 percent.” (Christian Pfeiffer, Criminologist)

“If Peter is attacked by Paul, he is likely to report it by 13 percent. But if he is attacked by Mehmet or Igor, he is likely to report by 27 percent.” (Christian Pfeiffer, Criminologist). Source: ARD Tagesschau

To be on the safe side, national TV made a graph with the quote, so it can be shared on Facebook.

But the vice chairman of the Association of German Criminal Investigators, Ulf Küch, comments on this assertion in an interview with Die Welt:

“Pfeiffer is correct insofar that foreigners are more frequently reported. Not in the case of serious crimes though – violent crimes and murders are almost always reported – but in the case of minor offenses a foreigner is more likely to be suspected by the police.”

Ulf Küch, Association of German Criminal Investigators “violent crimes and murders are almost always reported”. Photo: Thomas Ammerpohl

But Mr. Pfeiffer identified other factors that make refugees appear more criminal than Germans:

Lack of perspective:

“Particularly refugees from Algeria, Tunisia and Morocco frequently commit crimes. They seldom have a chance of staying in Germany. Refugees from Syria, Afghanistan and Iraq do not become offenders that often. They are eager not to risk their stay in Germany”.

Now that is reassuring when you look at the official crime stats from 2016 (table) and realize that Afghans, for example, despite their eagerness not to risk their stay in Germany, still commit nine times more murders in relation, and more than ten times more sexual offenses in relation, than Germans.

Sex and age:

“Many of the refugees are young men”.
We won’t argue that.

Age of refugees in Germany 2016. Source: German Federal Office For Statistics (Destatis) 2017

NDR info, another national broadcaster, ask Mr. Pfeiffer: “Is the behavior of these young men different in Germany than if they were in their homeland?”

Pfeiffer: “Without doubt. When they live in the context of their family, then there is the soothing influence of the grandmother, mother, the sisters, the girlfriend. The absence of women is exactly the problem with the refugees.”

Of course. The soothing influence of women on men in Northern African and Middle Eastern cultures is world-famous.

Afghan Stabs Ex Girlfriend (15) In Drugstore

The Girl’s Parents Had Already Reported Him To The Police Two Weeks Ago

Perpetrator in Germany since spring 2016 as an unaccompanied underage refugee 

The victim’s uncle, Jürgen Stöffler: “The last time I saw her was at our family celebration on Christmas day. Now she is dead and I still can’t believe it.‘”

By Janine Wollbrett
Dec. 28., 2017 – 1:52 PM CET

Kandel – A 15-year-old girl was stabbed down on Wednesday afternoon in a drugstore in Rhineland-Palatinate by an Afghan boy of the same age. He was the girl’s ex-boyfriend. This is what leading chief prosecutor Angelika Möhlig said on a press conference. An arrest warrant was issued.

The boy is in preliminary detention under strong suspicion of manslaughter. He has been refusing statement so far. According to the information, the girl broke up with the accused in the beginning of December. On wednesday, they encountered each other accidentally. The Afghan followed his ex-girlfriend and stabbed her repeatedly in the drugstore.

After the relationship of several months had ended, the youth had announced on social media that he wanted to “catch” his ex girlfriend, said Police Deputy Chief Eberhard Weber.

The Afghan entered Hesse in April 2016 as an unaccompanied underage refugee. He had been living in Neustadt an der Weinstraße (Rhineland-Palatinate) in a living group with three other youths since September 2017. He already had a record with the police for a hassle on the school yard.

Perpetrator Stabbed Her With a Kitchen Knife

The parents of the victim had pressed charges against the perpetrator for harassment two weeks ago. After the charge, the youth ignored the police’s citation several times. As a result, police delivered the citation personally to him before noon on the day of the crime.

The crime weapon is a 20 centimeter long kitchen knife. The weapon was secured, according to Dieter Lippold, leader of the investigation team. The Afghan did not resist arrest. There were no indications that he was under the influence of drugs. According to Lippold, he seemed quite indifferent. The two companions of the girl helped to detain the stabber until the police’s arrival.

The store is open again on the day after the deed, but shock and mourning run deep.

People have put flowers in front of the door, and lit candles. Customer Diana Jäger (31) was in the drugstore to fetch her photos at the evening of the deed. She heard an argument, then the girl’s screams: “I did not hear what it was about.” Then, the girl was lying on the floor, teenagers stood beside her. Diana Jäger: “They said, ‚Mia, stay awake!‘”

Everything went very fast. Jäger also saw the alleged perpetrator, she says: “He had a dirty smile on his face.”

The girl’s uncle, Jürgen Stöffler (55), says to BILD: “The last time I saw her was at our family celebration on Christmas day. We were in a Greek restaurant in Kandel. Now she is dead and I still can’t believe it. My brother-in-law called me yesterday and cried on the phone: ‚Mia was killed.‘”

The dm store manager, Roman Melcher (50), said to BILD: “I wish to express our deepest sympathy to the family. We are deeply saddened.”

2. Update
A photo of the “15 year old” Afghan child refugee has surfaced. His name is Abdul D.

In the afternoon, about 100 people of Kandel quietly and helplessly gathered in front of the supermarket.

Denmark Drastically Tightens Controls At German Border

December 23, 2017

In 2016, Denmark has introduced controls at the German border, because of the refugee crisis. Since September it even deploys armed soldiers. Now, the country tightens its border controls once again. Each single car is examined.

Denmark tightens the controls at the German border. The measure is part of the budget that parliament in Copenhagen adopted Friday evening.

Automatic license plate scanners will be installed at all border checkpoints. At the five large checkpoints Frøslev, Padborg, Kruså and the ferry terminals Rødby and Gedser, additional control huts will be established, according to the Danish news agency Ritzau.

At the other checkpoints, there will be sample checks with a patrol car, but, if necessary, also with civilian cars and from air. Denmark had tightened the controls at the German borders in January 2016 because of increasing numbers of refugees. The emphasis used to lay on the five large checkpoints.

Since late September, armed soldiers are deployed, to disencumber police. In October, the government extended the controls until at least May 12. Reasoning: risk of terror. The Danish government announced that they saw a risk in rejected asylum seekers from Germany.

Syrian Asylum Seeker Was Planning An Attack
Currently, Danish police have arrested a Syrian asylum seeker under terror suspicion, according to their statement, he and another Syrian who was convicted in Germany were planning an attack in Copenhagen. Police announce that the 30-year-old was apprehended in cooperation with the Danish intelligence service.

He and his 21-year-old accomplice wanted to “attack [people] with knives and after that, detonate one or multiple explosive devices” in November 2016 in Copenhagen. Their plan failed when Danish authorities refused entry to the younger of the two, and Danish police arrested him.

Denmark is bordered by Southern Sweden in the northeast, and Northern Germany to the south.

AUGSBURG
Exhibitionists On Bus and Street Tram: Police Make Two Arrests
Dec. 23, 2017

Lately, repeatedly exhibitionists appeared on busses and street trams. They even harassed children. Now the police announce two arrests. By Jörg Heinzle

Lately, cases of exhibitionism piled up in Augsburg. Time and again, men exposed themselves on busses, street trams and regional trains, and sometimes even harassed children. Now, police Augsburg have investigated two alleged serial perpetrators. The men, a Syrian and an Afghan asylum seeker, have been taken into preliminary detention this weekend. A third exhibitionist ist still being searched for.

One of the suspects, a 20-year-old Afghan, confessed four cases of exhibitionism, according to a police spokesman. The man exposed himself on street trams in front of girls. All of the victims are only ten and eleven years old. The arrest of the suspect came thanks to the alertedness of a criminal investigations officer, and a chance meeting. The investigator went downtown in his spare time on Friday. As he is professionally concerned with the case, he knew the images from the surveillance cameras of the street trams which show the suspect. The public utility company installed cameras, which save images temporarily, in all street trams. The investigators analyzed these recordings, which is how they obtained the images of the exhibitionists. The criminal investigations officer accidentally met the 20-year-old and recognized him. He informed his colleagues. The officers arrested the man, who did not resist, near Curt Frenzel Stadion.

Second Suspect Has Not Yet Confessed
Then, on Saturday, police caught a second man, who is allegedly behind at least seven cases of exhibitionism. He is a 32-year-old Syrian. He has not confessed yet. But police think that the man harassed mainly young girls and women – also on public transport, especially in Oberhausen. The 32-year-old did not just expose himself, but he also touched the victims. The youngest victim is ten years old. He allegedly also exposed himself before three boys between the ages of ten and eleven years.

The suspect was apprehended because two young women – 17 and 19 – saw and recognized the man on a street tram. He had harassed them a few days before on a tram in Ulmer Straße. But initially, they did not file a complaint. They now called the police. They followed the man when he exited the tram, and kept the officers informed about the location – he then was arrested in Bahnhofstraße.

Exhibitionist with tablet pc not yet apprehended
Those instances of exhibitionism that were committed by an approximately 30-year-old black African, who always had a white tablet pc with him during the deeds, have not yet been resolved though. The search for him is going on with pressure.

Call for witnesses: Criminal investigators are looking for witnesses, and for further possible victims in the cases of the two apprehended exhibitionists. The 20-year-old Afghan is about 1.60 metres tall. He has got dark, neck-length hair, a brown complexion, and Asian-Mongolian facial features. He was wearing a hooded blue winter jacket with white fur. The 32-year-old Syrian is about 1.70 metres tall and is of a strong, slightly fat, stature. He is described as a “southern” type with a full beard and black hair. He sometimes wore a pullover with white letters, sometimes a dark cap with the shield turned backwards. Criminal investigators are taking cues under telephone no. 0821/323-3810.

Store Detective Tells Migrant “It’s Not Permitted To Tear Open The Packaging” So Migrant Pummels Him

A  “man” of “oriental appearance”, who head-butted a store detective, giving him a concussion, and kicked and broke his ribs, when the detective told him that it’s not permitted to open the cellophane-sealed packages of perfume and test-spray them (according to the original police press release here), was handed his sentence today:

He got seven months jail time and will be immediately deported after serving time.
Just kidding! Of course not.
His sentence was suspended, and won’t affect his residence status at all. The court counted in his favour that he just enrolled in a German language class.

Freudenstadt
Perfume-Test Causes Freakout
By Ina Frank, Dec. 19., 2017

Freudenstadt – A 21-year-old was handed a suspended sentence for battery attack in the Kaufland department store in Freudenstadt

A young man wants to try a perfume at Kaufland in Freudenstadt, and tears open the cellophane. When he is being told that this is not permitted, he completely freaks out. The result is bruises and a capsular rupture of the finger of the store detective.

Repeatedly sprayed around in the aisle
The 21-year-old had to answer for this incident on Monday at the District Court Freudenstadt. On May 31. of this year, the accused, who was residing in Pfalzgrafenweiler at the time, was shopping at Kaufland department store in Freudenstadt. He wanted to test a perfume in the drugstore department, opened the packaging, and sprayed several times in the aisle. First, a sales lady notified him that this is not permitted, then the store detective attended. According to the charge, the accused then pushed the store detective against the shelf, kicked him repeatedly, and headbutted him. For the bruises and a capsular rupture in his pinkie finger, resulting from that, the store detective had to stay in hospital for two days.

When the hearing opened, the accused stated that he was willing to answer the judge’s questions. But his answers were quite monosyllabic – respectively that what the attending female interpreter made of them. The accused asserted that he thought the perfume was a sample for testing. He wasn’t able to recall why exactly the argument broke out. He couldn’t recall whether he beat or kicked and which parts of the detective’s body. Quickly, the witnesses were summoned, as the plaintiff did not have much to say and showed no insight at all into having committed a crime.

The first witness to speak was the detective. He recalled that the plaintiff first gave him a headbutt. His other memories were rather vague. [After receiving a concussion? No Way! – translator] He described the attacks of the accused as “Simply battering” and said that the accused was “difficult to restrain”. Therefore, the department manager, and the store manager, who arrived at the scene, finally dispatched the 21-year-old to the outside through the emergency exit.

His first criminal offense
Further witnesses were two female employees of Kaufland, who were busy at the adjoining shelves, the department manager and the store manager. All of them described the incident similarly: The plaintiff had become more and more aggressive, but they weren’t able to precisely recall when and where which punches and kicks landed, and if they hit target or not. A police officer finally explained that they identified the accused by finger prints on other goods in his shopping cart.

It was the first time that the plaintiff had committed a criminal offense. For this reason, and because he had just enrolled in a German class in the vocational college, a suspended sentence was handed. The plaintiff has to stay clear of criminal offenses for three years, otherwise, he will have to go to jail for seven months, the judge explained. The accused left the courtroom almost cheerful.
