Suspect in Fatal Stabbing in Aschaffenburg May Not Be Criminally Liable

berlin, germany - The suspect in the fatal stabbing in Aschaffenburg, Germany, was possibly not criminally liable due to mental health issues.

Background of the Case

The suspect, a 28-year-old man from Afghanistan whose asylum request had been rejected, is accused of killing a 2-year-old boy and a 41-year-old man in a park on January 22. Three others were seriously injured. The incident sparked outrage, with migration being a significant topic in last week's elections.

Investigators quickly found evidence of a psychiatric condition, including medications found at the suspect's home. A psychiatric report indicated that there is a high probability that the suspect committed the crime while not criminally liable due to a psychiatric condition that impaired his ability to understand the unlawfulness of his actions.
