Sent from a curious-looking account with over 40,000 followers and an Arabic name, the message read: “If this is interesting to you, can you look at my tweets about German police and prosecutors.”
James JacksonI received a message in my inbox earlier this year from a certain Taleb al-Abdulmohsen, whose profile claimed that Germany was guilty of “Islamising Europe”.
Little did I know that the sender would end up being the main suspect in Friday’s Christmas market attack in the eastern city of Magdeburg, where an SUV fatally ploughed into a dense crowd at high speed.
