Attack on the office of a black lawyer in Germany

Diaby, in his written statement, claimed that his office was set on fire last night with a flammable liquid.

Stating that no one was injured in the incident, but that his office could not be used for a while because the damage occurred, Diaby noted that both he and the police knew the suspect.

Diaby shared the information that he had filed many criminal complaints against the suspect before.
Emphasizing that he will not be discouraged as in the past, Diaby thanked his supporters for their solidarity.

In the statement made by the Halle police, it was stated that the eyewitnesses who noticed the flames in the building in question and the 55-year-old suspect in front of the building around 10:00 p.m. last night, kept this person until the police arrived on the scene.

In the statement, it was stated that the suspect was detained and the investigation of the incident is continuing, and that firefighters extinguished the fire, and that the building’s entrance door and the wooden floor in the entrance area were damaged. .

SPD co-chair Saskia Esken also condemned the attack in a written statement, calling it “an attack on democracy.”

Diaby’s election office was also attacked in 2020 and bullet holes were found in a window of his office.

Karamba Diaby was first elected to parliament in the 2013 general election, joining the Bundestag. (AA)
