Shock attack in Bergneustadt: Repeated attack on 58-year-old!
A nightmare causes sleepless nights for a small town in the Bergisches Land: the shocking case of a brutal and disturbing series of attacks shakes Bergneustadt! A city in the grip of fear after an African named Amaniel M. repeatedly attacked women. It all started on December 3rd, when Barbara Zils was defenseless in a bank branch in front of a man who had already ambushed her before. Reported about the incident YOUNG FREEDOM impressive. The 58-year-old widow describes how she was harassed with obscene comments by Amaniel M., who barely speaks German. But that wasn't the first incident: two months earlier he had harassed her on her doorstep and kept showing up at her house.
The crowning horror for Zils continued as the man brutally attacked her. “All I felt was punches in the face and suddenly blood in my mouth,” says the brave woman, describing her terrible experience. This resulted in serious injuries, including three broken bones, for which she required surgery. She now has implants in her cheekbone and nose. The pain of the attack and the fear of further attacks no longer allow the mother of two daughters to calm down. Fearful of death, she left her home and found refuge with her youngest child.
Community in turmoil
There is great excitement and concern throughout the city. A man who has already attracted attention several times and is now in the sights of the police remains a danger, while the authorities reassure that women in Bergneustadt are not in danger. Police spokesman Marc Leporin explains that it is officially a case of bodily harm. But the fact that the bank's surveillance videos haven't even been evaluated yet makes people shake their heads.
While the authorities downplay the true threat, there are videos that show Amaniel M. hanging around in doorways. We hear about him again and again, and shocking reports of how he allegedly threatened passers-by with a broken bottle in a supermarket fuel discussions. For Barbara Zils it is clear: This man is a real danger. Not just for her, but also for other women in the city. The murmured words in the dark hallway become an urgent warning: “If you don’t calm down now, I’ll get the police.” But will that be enough to put an end to such threats?
City administration under pressure
Mayor Matthias Thul is also responsible. With the burden on the community confronted, he assures that the city administration is supporting Barbara Zils with concrete offers of help. Nevertheless, there is no specific information about Amaniel M.'s residence status and restrictions in local politics regarding police powers continue to fuel discussions in the city.
While Barbara Zils continues to take legal action against her tormentor, the tension within the small town of Bergneustadt remains high. The reports of impending dangers and frightening events cast a long shadow over the once peaceful community. In this uncertain situation, the residents of Bergneustadt remain vigilant and hope that security can be restored soon.
