13-Year-Old Suspected of Planning Attack in Zwickau; SEK Raids Syrian Family's Home
In Zwickau, Germany, a 13-year-old boy from a Syrian family is under suspicion of planning a serious crime after allegedly threatening an attack on social media. The SEK (special police unit) stormed the family's apartment on Nicolaistraße, confiscating cell phones, a PlayStation, and an iPad. The boy's 10-year-old brother was also taken from the home. The father, Mahmoud A., confirmed the social media posts were about religion but said they were made weeks ago and he deleted them. He agreed to his son's admission to a psychiatric facility. The father considers the police operation disproportionate and traumatic, noting the children were brought to the ground and handcuffed. The family has lived in Germany for five years. The nearby wine festival was not evacuated but police vehicles were positioned there.
