Muslim bodybuilder races in Münchner demo: 28 injuries!

München, Deutschland - Munich is under shock after a cruel incident that occurred on Thursday morning: a 24-year-old Afghan, known as Farhad N., raced into a crowd with a Mini Cooper over 50 km/h that took part in a demonstration by the Verdi union. A total of 28 people were injured, including ten seriously injured and several children, as the emergency services confirmed. The attacker, who previously lived as an asylum seeker in Germany, was arrested at the crime scene after the police fired shots on his vehicle to stop him, reported Focus .

Farhad N. was originally born in Kabul in 2001 and came to Germany at the end of 2016. His application for asylum was rejected in 2017 and he was considered to be left -wing since 2020. Despite this situation, he received toleration and was therefore still in the country. According to Exxpress , the young man noticed the police for drug offenses. Before his terrible act, N. had an active life on social media, where he presented himself as a bodybuilder and shared Islamist content. Neighbors described him as friendly, but fascinated by his behavior because he was often involved in excited calls.

isolated or extremism?

The investigation that has now been adopted by the Bavarian Central Office for Extremism and Terrorism briefly reveal indications on a possible extremist background. Farhad N. had shared Islamist embassy and content through social media and used to prominently used Islamic symbols, such as the Tahaid finger, which is often associated with militant Islamism. Whether it is a "flash radicalization" is currently being investigated, reported FOCUS .

The act raises serious questions: How could an rejected asylum seeker act so violently within a demonstration? Farhad N.'s past, from unaccompanied minors to rejected asylum applications to the latest racist and extremist connections, has a concern that could shortly lead to further political and security measures in Germany. The authorities are now under pressure to determine the exact motives for this act.
