Threat with attack: Was Taleb A. a hazard for a long time?

Magdeburg, Deutschland - alarm signal ignored: Taleb A. threatened with an attack in 2013. Research on the news magazine "Spiegel" show that he then spoke telephone threats in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania to the Medical Association, in which he referred to the fatal attack at the Marathon in Boston. In connection with his specialist training, there were disputes about the recognition of examination achievements that A. used as an occasion for its extreme threats. Despite a search of his apartment by the police, no evidence of "real attack preparation" was found. Finally, A. was convicted in September 2013 for the disturbance of public peace ( Today.at )

Current developments related to the alleged perpetrator of Magdeburg show that he had received a letter of danger months before the fateful attack. As the MDR news portal reports, Taleb A. received a written warning in August 2023, in which he was asked to refrain from threats to the judiciary. He had previously sent an email to the Cologne public prosecutor, in which he had announced without any conscience to "plan events that will happen in the next few days". The authorities rated this as a serious threat, but the planned personal approach to danger failed because A. was unavailable. Instead, he was only sent a written letter ( t-online.de).
