Munich Prosecutors Drop Terror Charges Against Syrian Man

The alleged plot to attack German soldiers was deemed unfounded, and the accuser is now under investigation for possible false claims.

  • A 27-year-old Syrian man, previously accused of planning a machete attack on Bundeswehr soldiers, has been released from custody.
  • Investigations by the General Prosecutor's Office in Munich found no evidence supporting the terror allegations against the accused.
  • The initial accusation may have stemmed from a personal dispute involving drug-related activities, leading to a false report.
  • The authorities have now shifted focus to the credibility of the accuser, who might have fabricated the story.
  • Despite the initial arrest being justified based on the available information, the Syrian man is eligible for compensation for wrongful detention.
