Extremism - Security circles: Terror suspect was known
According to security sources, the terror suspect from Wittstock/Dosse in Brandenburg was a known criminal. He was already known for offenses such as robbery, extortion and in connection with drugs, the German Press Agency learned on Saturday. Later, the Brandenburg Office for the Protection of the Constitution is said to have been on his trail. The latter then informed the North Rhine-Westphalia Office for the Protection of the Constitution as well as the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution and the Federal Office.
The 16-year-old was arrested last Tuesday in Wittstock (Ostprignitz-Ruppin district). The Neuruppin district court issued a warrant for his arrest on Wednesday on the urgent suspicion of having planned and prepared a terrorist attack on the Internet with a teenager in North Rhine-Westphalia.
The Leverkusen district court had also issued an arrest warrant for the other youth for planning and preparing an Islamist terrorist attack. According to the public prosecutor's office in Düsseldorf, they allegedly agreed to kill visitors to a Christmas market in Leverkusen and planned the attack based on the aims and methods of Islamic State (IS).
Both were remanded in custody. The terror suspect from Wittstock is currently in the Brandenburg/Havel University Hospital. The "Märkische Allgemeine" had previously reported on this.
