Bochum. A shocking acid attack has injured eleven people and put the city of Bochum into turmoil! The public prosecutor has now raised charges against a 36-year-old man from Lünen, who is considered the alleged accomplice of the perpetrator. The accusation: aid for attempted murder and dangerous bodily harm!

The cruel incident occurred at the end of June when a 43-year-old man from Bergkamen injected highly concentrated sulfuric acid on unsuspecting guests and a waitress in the café "Miss Coffea". The 31-year-old student DHIA, who had to endure several operations, suffers from the victims and still suffers from the terrible consequences of the attack. The alleged perpetrator, who committed suicide in his cell in October, was stopped by passers -by shortly after the crime before he was in custody.

The charges against the 36-year-old from Lünen throws a bright light on the dark background of the crime. He is said to have driven the main perpetrator to the crime scene and is also accused of being traveling without a driver's license.

The trial of the alleged accomplice is still pending because different deadlines have to be observed. It remains in custody.

The city of Bochum is shaken by this incident, which affects not only the victims, but also the entire community. The background of the case could come to light in the upcoming process and reveal the shocking motifs behind this brutal attack.
