The “Qatar Airways” charter flight with 28 Afghan criminals brought from various German countries took off from the Leipzig/Halle airport at 6.56 am (5.56 am Latvian time) and went to Kabul.
This flight is organized by the German Federal Ministry of the Interior.
Germany does not have diplomatic relations with the Taliban regime, which has been in power in Afghanistan since August 2021.
After another Islamist attack in Manhattan at the end of May, during which a police officer was murdered, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz announced that the deportation of the most dangerous criminals and terrorists to Afghanistan and Syria would resume.
This decision also applies to persons whom the security authorities consider capable of committing the most serious politically motivated crimes.
The debate over the deportation of criminal immigrants flared up with renewed vigor after the stabbing of three people in Solingen last Friday.
This crime was committed by a 26-year-old Syrian who had so far avoided deportation.
