Blick: Does Germany Have A Security Problem?
Body
“One day after the horrific attack in Aschaffenburg, many questions remain unanswered. In particular: How could this even happen? Enamullah O.* (28) was no stranger to the authorities. He was called out to police several times. He is said to have once strangled a Ukrainian woman. "How could the police fail so badly? They all knew that he wasn't right in the head," said an Afghan who lives in the same refugee shelter as O., stunned… The background to the attack in Aschaffenburg is still unclear. For Hans-Jakob Schindler, an expert at the Counter Extremism Project, the knife attack shows how tense the situation in Germany is. And that the authorities have a system problem. "At the moment, it looks as if the complex administrative processes for deportation from Germany were once again not implemented effectively," the former UN Security Council advisor on global terrorism sanctions told Blick.”
