Failure of the authorities: fatal attack on Magdeburg Christmas market!

Magdeburg, Deutschland - A disaster of unimaginable scale shakes Magdeburg: The fatal amocation at the Christmas market might have been prevented if the security concept had been intact. Now both the city administration and the police are targeting the investigators. An advertisement against both authorities was submitted to the General Prosecutor's Office in Naumburg, and they are accused of aid to murder in five cases and aid for assault in at least 200 cases. These shocking accusations were presented by the Jena Criminalist Institute, such as picture reported.

The horror scenario took its course, as a death driver Taleb al-Abdulmohsen (50) with his heavy BMW X3 raced through a five-meter-wide gap, exactly where, according to the plan, a police vehicle should have been. This failure led to a bloodbath with five deaths and 200 injuries. The shocking details continue to increase the excitement about the poor protection, especially since the situation could have been defused by mobile barriers. The accusation is: Aid for a criminal offense by omission, explains picture .

a security concept that fails!

Incredible indignation among the citizens: At a press conference, Ronni Krug, deputy for order, said that the security concept was "good" and emphasized the need for free rescue and escape routes. But the outrage remains great, because it seems that the police concept has failed in a crucial point. The spokeswoman for the Interior Ministry, Patricia Blez, said: "Mobile locks were intended, but not determined where how many vehicles are to be posted."

Lawyer Dr. Adam Ahmed calls for drastic measures in order to take account of the person responsible. In particular, the gap in the security concept is the focus of the demands for further investigations into negligent killing and assault.

justice for the victims?

What remains the victims' members? A possible civil law path through official liability against the state could be considered, said civilian lawyer Norman Synek. The amount of any claims for damages will have to be based on the individual fates, but the hope of real justice seems to be ahead.

In the meantime, Magdeburg mourns the sacrifice at the place of tragedy. A sea of ​​flower adorns the Johanniskirche, memories of a terrible Christmas that the city will never forget.
