German knife attack suspect detained for alleged terror group membership, prosecutor’s office says
The German prosecutor’s office orders the pre-trial detention of the suspected perpetrator of a deadly knife attack in Solingen, suspecting him of belonging to a “terrorist group.”
The arrest warrant says that the suspect identified as “Syrian national Issa Al H” will be detained over “strong suspicions of belonging to a terrorist group abroad” as well as of murder and attempted murder. The Islamic State group has claimed responsibility for Friday night’s attack.
