A Syrian man wanted for allegedly preparing a bombing attack was apprehended by three of his countrymen. This ended a nationwide search for the 22-year-old that German authorities launched after finding several pounds of explosives hidden inside an apartment in the eastern city of Chemnitz.
A security official said there was no indication yet that Albakr was being directed by the Islamic State group. A 33-year-old Syrian arrested and is considered a co-conspirator in the alleged bomb plot, prosecutors said.
The incident comes amid ongoing concerns about the flood of asylum seekers that entered Germany and increasing support for populist parties with anti-migrant rhetoric.
The country also has been on edge since two attacks in July carried out by asylum seekers and claimed by the Islamic State group.
Millions of Syrians fled the war to the neighboring countries in the worst humanitarian disaster in recent history. Many want to stay home, providing that we help stabilize the country. It is very hard for the migrant and their families to adjust in the western world. The vast differences in social, economics, religions, and personal standards make it very difficult to adjust.
Can we help stabilize Syria?
