Police Raid on Syrian Family in Zwickau Following Threat by 13-Year-Old
A police operation in Zwickau targeted a Syrian family after a 13-year-old allegedly threatened a violent act on social media.
The operation involved the Special Operations Command (SEK) and resulted in the seizure of electronic devices, including phones and gaming consoles. The boy’s father, Mahmoud A., reported that both his 13-year-old son and his 10-year-old brother were taken from their home, with the elder undergoing psychological evaluation. The police action, which occurred amidst a local festival, has been described by the father as disproportionate and traumatizing, despite his belief that his son did not intend to commit a crime.
