Germany releases brothers suspected of mall attack plot
2016-12-26
[IsraelTimes] German police said Saturday they had released two brothers suspected of planning an attack on one of the country’s biggest shopping centers, citing a lack of evidence.

The two men, aged 28 and 31 and originally from Kosovo, were arrested on Friday as Germany was on high alert following a jihadist attack on a Berlin Christmas market earlier in the week.

But police in the western city of Essen said in a statement that “despite careful investigation” the allegations against the pair could not be substantiated.

Police had acted on a tip-off from intelligence services that claimed the duo was planning to target the CentrO mall in the nearby city of Oberhausen.

“After it was established today that there were no relevant criminal findings against the two persons and there was no concrete danger, they were released from police custody this afternoon,” the statement said.
