There was a terrorist attack in Munich on the day of the Munich Security Conference. At high speed, the Afghan refugee drove into the crowd when world leaders arrived in the city. At least 30 people were injured as a result of the attack, some of them are in critical condition. About it reports Reuters.
According to police, the white car approached the law enforcement officers who accompanied the demonstration of strikers, after which he sharply accelerated and crashed into people. Law enforcement officers opened a fire, making one shot, but it is unknown whether the driver was injured. The attacker was detained in place.
Munich Prosecutor General's Office confirmed that the striker is a 24-year-old Afghan refugee Farhad Nuri. Bavaria Minister Joachim Gerrmann said Nuri had previously been held accountable for drug and theft crimes.
The Afghan request for asylum was rejected, but he remained in the country because of a difficult situation with Afghanistan security, officials said.
