Afghan migrant, 17, held over rape and murder of university student
03/12/2016 | 17:16



A teenage Afghan migrant - who arrived in Germany as an unaccompanied minor last year - has been taken into custody on suspicion of the rape and killing of a 19-year-old university student.



Prosecutor Dieter Inhofer, in Freiburg, south-west Germany, said on Saturday that the 17-year-old asylum seeker was identified as a suspect based on traffic video from near the crime scene.

Inhofer told the dpa news agency that DNA evidence tied the boy to the crime scene. He was living in the area with a family.

The student vanished on her way home from a party early on October 16. Her body was found in a river later that day.

The suspect has not made a statement.

Authorities are trying to determine if he and the young woman knew each other.

The German government has reacted to the shocking news about a Muslim migrant who raped and killed a 19-year-old woman by warning that it would be watching Facebook posts carefully for instances of Islamophobia.

A teenage Afghan asylum seeker was arrested on Friday for the alleged rape and murder of medical student in Freiburg which took place last month.

The victim’s father is a senior EU official and a vehement supporter of the migrant policy that has seen over a million “refugees” pour into Germany over the last year. The aftermath of the murder was made even more bizarre by the fact that the victim’s parents used her funeral to raise money for charities that are working to bring more “refugees” into Germany. The victim herself was also a “refugee activist”.

As if the story couldn’t get any more disturbing, the German government’s response was to warn German citizens who expressed anger over the incident on Facebook that it would be on the lookout for Islamophobic hate speech.

Vice Chancellor Sigmar Gabriel asserted that the murder should not be used to stoke anti-migrant sentiment.

German public TV under fire for silence on rape-murder case

BERLIN (AFP) -

Germany's public broadcaster ARD came under fire Tuesday, accused of ignoring a rape-murder case in which an Afghan refugee is the top suspect for fear of fueling anti-migrant sentiment.

The top-ranking evening news programme, Tagesschau, had on Saturday decided not to report on the arrest of the 17-year-old Afghan asylum seeker over the alleged killing of a 19-year-old medical student named as Maria L.

Responding to a wave of online criticism, ARD chief news editor Kai Gniffke said that the national edition of the programme reports "very rarely on individual criminal cases" and focuses mainly on "events of societal, national or international relevance".

But the programme found itself at the centre of a social media storm, widely accused as deliberately ignoring the crime in an effort to be "politically correct" and because it cast a negative light on the government's liberal migrant policy.
