A two -year -old girl and her 37 mother have died this Saturday because of the injuries suffered in the multiple outrage that occurred on Thursday in Munich (southern Germany) and that the authorities investigate as a possible attack, as reported by the regional chain Bayerischer Rundfunk, which cited the Regional Office of Criminal Investigations (LK).
Of the 39 injured who had been counted, mother and daughter were the only ones who were in critical condition following the outrage, which also left eight serious and ten medium -sized injured.
Shortly before knowing the news, the German chancellor, Olaf Scholz, had come to deposit flowers to the scene, where he called on the unity of the country, and urged that the authors of this type of acts be punished with “ all the hardness of the law ”.
“It is a reason for affliction and it is something that warns us to do everything in our hand to avoid this kind of events,” said the chancellor regarding the massive outrage, the second of this type in two months after Magdeburg ( This), which caused six dead and several hundred injured on December 20.
The State Attorney General’s Office assumed the investigation of the events on Friday, after the police found indications that made it suspect of a possible Islamist motivation.
The author, a 24 -year -old Afghan citizen, who was arrested at the time, acknowledged in the interrogation that he had deliberately rammed against the demonstration of public employees convened by the Verdi union and argued for it a “religious explanation,” they said Researchers on Friday at a press conference in Munich.
Against what had initially transcended, the detainee was legally in Germany – although his asylum application had been rejected in 2016 – and did not have a criminal record.
Last month, another Afghan citizen was arrested as a suspect from an attack with a knife in Aschaffenburg – just as Munich, in the southern region of Bavaria – in which a two -year -old boy and a 41 -year -old man who came to help him were killed, which shocked the country and turned the campaign for the elections of February 23.
