German authorities successfully prevented a potential terror attack with the arrest of an Afghan asylum seeker in Hanau, Hesse. The suspect, a 33-year-old identified in a state parliamentary report by the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party as Hassibullah A., was taken into custody last Friday following a tip-off from city officials.

Concerns arose when the suspect exhibited erratic behavior during an appointment at Hanau’s Citizens’ Service office, where he sought to deregister his residency and declare his voluntary departure from Germany. After he left, staff alerted the police, who later located him at his asylum accommodation on Ludwigstrasse in Hanau-Steinheim.

A search of his belongings uncovered two kitchen knives, a balaclava, an axe, a hammer, and written materials allegedly containing threats against Germans. According to the AfD report, notes included phrases like “Death to you Germans” and “Long live Afghanistan,” though police have not officially confirmed the wording.

Following his arrest, the suspect was placed in a psychiatric clinic under police guard. The incident has sparked security concerns, with the AfD emphasizing that a swift response from Hanau city officials and law enforcement may have prevented a deadly attack.

“The possibility cannot be ruled out that the quick actions of Hanau city officials and the police prevented a serious act of violence at the last moment,” stated the report, shared on X by local AfD MP Klaus Gagel.

The report also questioned why the public was not informed of the incident in a timely manner, calling for further clarification.
