ISIS Suspect Gets Deported To Nigeria
After weeks of investigation in Germany, Goettingen following a suspected attack plan, the unidientified man was detained in February, the German news agency, dpa, reports that the 22-year-old arrived in Lagos on Thursday and has been barned from Germany for life.
The deportee who was born in Germany lived with his mother and has not commited any crime has been deemed dangerous by the German authorities.
Following attacks by Islamic extremists last year, German authorities vowed to step up deportations of foreigners deemed to be threats. The two men, according to www.dw.com, were arrested after being under surveillance for some time.
Their deportation has no precedence in German history.
“We are sending a clear warning to all fanatics nationwide that we will not give them a centimeter of space to carry out their despicable plans,” said Lower Saxony’s Interior Minister Boris Pistorius (SPD) following the court ruling authorising the deportation
“They will face the full force of the law regardless of whether they were born here or not,” he added.
In the case of the Algerian, the court made his deportation conditional on assurances from the Algerian government that he would not be tortured or subjected to any inhuman treatment.
