[AlMasdar] A 20 year old Syrian refugee | ...who is quite probably neither Syrian nor so young as twenty, nor even a proper refugee... |
According to the DW report, a German court handed the Syrian refugee a six-and-a-half year long prison sentence for planning to carry out a kaboom.
The Syrian refugee was identified as Yamen A;

inside the northern Germany city of Schwerin in late 2017.
Initially, the prosecution was seeking a five-and-a-half year long sentence for the Syrian man because he was planning to kill and injure over 200 people with a boom-mobile.

the judge ultimately handed down a harsher sentence because of the Syrian man’s ’determination’ to carry out the kaboom.
"You wanted to take lives, and in doing so endanger the security of the state," presiding Judge Ulrike Taeubner told the defendant.

The suspect arrived in Germany in September 2015 after fleeing Syria. He was granted asylum in February 2016. He initially shared a flat with other young refugees in Schwerin before moving into his own place.
According to authorities, he was radicalized over the internet, and by mid-2017 had become a supporter of the so-called "Islamic State."
Friday's verdict is not yet legally binding and can be appealed.
