The accusation is reminiscent of scenes from a bad film: According to it, Moustafa A. (31) jumped out of a bush, grabbed a little boy (6 at the time) and tried to disappear with the child. The kidnapping was thwarted. Now the Syrian was before the district judge in Pirna. However, no verdict was reached.
“It was scary,” recalled Sophia P. (17), who spent the afternoon with her little brother and a buddy (18) in Niedervogelgesang on the Elbe in May 2020.
“There was someone sitting behind us in the bushes. I thought that was strange and wanted to go home. Then the man jumped out of the bush, grabbed my brother, kept shouting ‘My son. My son’ and wanted to leave with him.”
Sophia fought with all her power for her completely frightened brother, screaming for help. In doing so, she suffered blows. Her boyfriend resisted, but he was also beaten.
Tourists who witnessed the commotion alerted the police. Only then did Moustafa, who incidentally does not have or did not have any children, finally release the boy.
This was not his only sinister act.
A compatriot (32) reported: “My girlfriend was waiting for me in front of the house. As I walked towards her, he aggressively approached me and said he wanted to ‘kill me’ as an ‘infidel’, he kept shouting ‘Allahu akbar’.”
In both cases, police officers who rushed to the spot reported that Moustafa was “beside himself”, “staring”, optionally appearing “confused”.
The accused denied: “There was no altercation”, he explained about the incident with the siblings. The compatriot had “pulled out his hair”.
In the meantime, Moustafa lives in the district of Dahme-Spreewald, takes medication and has a guardian. The judge interrupted the trial and is now having a psychiatric report drawn up.
