A judge in Lower Saxony has issued a warrant for the arrest of an Iraqi man who arrived as a “minor refugee” in 2015. Suspicion: double murder. The 23-year-old Ayas Illias A. allegedly killed master mechanic Karsten U. and his wife, Christian Democratic Union (CDU) functionary Sabine U.. The crime against the 59 and 60 year old couple took place in their home in Wennigsen near Hanover.
The prosecution assumes that the Iraqi stabbed the couple out of greed. Sabine U. was a secretary in the local CDU association. Her husband had sold his car repair shop to the immigrant ten months ago. According to the newspaper Bild, A. was supposed to pay “more than 300,000 euros” for it. The police suspect that he was unable to do so and wanted to get rid of his debts by committing the murder.
Apparently to distract himself, A. had called the police himself shortly after the crime. He claimed to be worried about the couple because the man had not turned up at the workshop as arranged – allegedly to assist the police. The Iraqi is said to have bought another workshop and even a detached house. Where A. got all that money is now being investigated.
In 2015, the authorities investigated Ayas Illias A. for illegal entry. However, the case was dropped.
