People with lighters are pictured after a mourning march in Koethen, eastern Germany, on September 9, 2018. German officials pleaded for calm on September 9, 2018, after two Afghans were detained on suspicion of killing a German man in a fight, fuelling fears of fresh anti-foreigner unrest after racist violence shook the city of Chemnitz.
