Tunis / Dusseldorf (dpa) – The Islamist expelled from Germany Sami A. was released in his homeland Tunisia . This was reported by his Tunisian lawyer Seif Eddine Makhlouf.
Terrorist investigations against him continued, said Tunisian anti-terrorism spokesman Sofiane Sliti. Sami A. is released and remains at liberty until the end of the investigation. According to his lawyer, the Islamist initially wanted to return to his hometown, Sousse.
According to Slitis, Sami A. can not go to Germany at the moment. His pbadport had expired and had been confiscated, he explained. In addition, he should continue to be interviewed. There is no formal release ban for him. A judge should decide that early next week.
Following the release of Sami A., the Islamist lawyer wants to put pressure on the city of Bochum and force her to surrender her client. "I am now waiting for the city, that my client will immediately receive a visa and be repatriated," said Seda Basay-Yildiz in Frankfurt-am-Main. "The city has argued that he is in detention and therefore can not be recovered, so this reason has been dropped."
The Tunisian was expelled from North Rhine-Westphalia to his home on July 13, although the Gelsenkirchen Administrative Court decided the day before that it was not allowed. The judges denounced the action as "grossly illegal".
Meanwhile, the administrative court asked the immigration authorities in Bochum on pain of 10,000 euros, to bring back Sami A. no later than next Tuesday. The Ministry of Refugees of North Rhine-Westphalia is preparing a complaint against this decision. "We are currently obtaining further information from the Tunisian authorities on today's decision regarding Sami A. We must await the decision of the Higher Administrative Court of Münster" , said the ministry in a statement issued by dpa. request.
The Islamist, who, according to the conviction of the Higher Administrative Court of Munster, belonged to the bodyguard of the killed al Qaeda leader in 2011, Osama Bin Laden, had been detained since his deportation of Germany in his country of origin. Sami A. is believed to have received military training as bin Laden's bodyguard in Afghanistan, Sliti said. In addition, he should be investigated if he had been involved in extremist activities in Germany. Until now, the allegations against him could not have been proven.
Makhlouf, an Islamist lawyer in Tunisia, said he was waiting for the investigating judge to complete his work. In the next step, Sami A. should pick up his pbadport.
Armin Schuster, member of the CDU Bundestag, said the release confirmed the legitimacy of the deportation of Islamists. "If the Tunisian authorities release him, then the badumption that he is threatened with torture breaks down, as one could expect," he told the "Berliner Zeitung" (Saturday). This means that Sami A. should be rejected at the border with Germany if he wants to return to Germany.
Criminals fear an act of revenge. "We are baduming that Sami A. is currently at considerable risk," said Bund Deutscher Kriminalbeamter chairman Sebastian Fiedler, the "Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger" (Saturday). "In the context that he has already indirectly threatened an act of revenge, it would be fatal if Sami A. managed to return to NRW."
The Bochum District Court ordered a pre-trial detention against Sami A. last month. Among other things, the court relied on the testimony of a witness to whom he said that "Germany will cry the blood" when he is deported.
According to the Tunisian antiterrorist authority, no request for return of Sami A. According to Tunisian law, extradition of citizens is possible in the case of terrorism charges in another country. In Germany, the man is considered a threat, membership in a terrorist organization but could not be proven. The corresponding surveys were discontinued.
The leading lawyers in Germany are currently arguing over the legality of his deportation. Klaus Gärditz, Constitutional Judge of North Rhine-Westphalia and Professor at the University of Bonn, recently spoke of "concerted sleight of hand". The foreign law expert and chairman of the Darmstadt Administrative Court, Klaus Dienelt, considers the deportation to be lawful.
