GERMANY,SAUDI ARABIA,CHRISTMAS MARKET ATTACK

German authorities failed to act on multiple warnings from Saudi Arabia about the potential dangers of the suspected perpetrator of the Magdeburg Christmas market attack.

Police in Germany have admitted that they were warned from Saudi Arabia about the potential dangers of the suspected perpetrator of the Magdeburg Christmas market attack, yet failed to act on the warnings. The head of Germany’s Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA), Holger Münch, has acknowledged that his agency was tipped off by Riyadh in November of last year about Taleb A.

, a Saudi Arabian refugee accused of plowing a car into a crowded Christmas market on Friday evening, killing at least five people and injuring hundreds more. However, no further actions were taken. The BKA chief also said that the suspect had “various contacts with the authorities, made insults and even made threats,” but Münch claimed that “he was not known for acts of violence.” The Saudi embassy in Berlin had attempted to warn German authorities on several occasions about Taleb, pointing to posts he made on social media. The suspected attacker is reported to have made several threats against Germany on social media, including: “I assure you: If Germany wants war, we will have it. If Germany wants to kill us, we will slaughter them, die or proudly go to prison.” He is said to have vowed: “Germany will pay the price. A huge price… I assure you that 100 percent revenge will come soon. Even if it costs me my life.” Additionally, the Saudis had also requested that Interpol arrest Taleb in 2023 for alleged terror activities. However, Germany rejected the request as they supposedly believed that it could have been politically motivated on the part of the Saudis. A fellow Saudi Arabian woman had also reportedly attempted to warn authorities about Taleb, however, her email was not sent to Berlin police, but rather a German outpost in New Jersey in the United States
