that was arrested, he turned himself in. and the reason why he's believe to be the main suspect is because he a reportedly confessed to having committed the attack and was also allegedly wearing the clothes that he had committed the attack. and so there were still allegedly, and reportedly blood on, on the clothes that he was wearing. and he is reported to have been a syrian who can, to germany seeking asylum in 2022. he initially received a kind of this protective kind of residency here which allows him to stay in the country until his asylum application is processed. and for the moment we don't know much more, you know, police are still kind of being a bit vague on the details as they continue their investigations. now for the other 2, a, one of the, one of the, the suspect one of the 1st arrest yesterday was of a 15 year old, who allegedly had, had heard that the attack was being prepared. and he's being detained on, uh uh,
9:16 am
you know, he's being detained. first of not reporting the attack. well, the 2nd one was an arrest out of refugees center in sewing game. and we don't know too much more about that one. but that one came a little bit later on in the day. so from what we know they're happening and the main specific piece in detention according just and just very quickly louis, and i know you don't necessarily have all the answers right now. but do we know whether all 3 of the suspects knew each other just quickly? unfortunately, i don't have that information and i don't believe the police have released it. understood, unclear whether there was any communication between, for example, the 15 year old and the main suspect. but i, i, from my understanding that would be maybe the clearest a device that being said,
9:17 am
think that you're referring to. he was a resident of the local refugee center. we understand what are you hearing there on the ground, about the dynamic between asylum seekers and the local residents? well, it's something that's been a part of the national debate for years now. and here, there have been tensions for years as in other places in germany. now, what i can say is that this festival, where the attack, what happened that was meant to kind of bring together the community, it was, you know, came under the banner of diversity. so lincoln has had a history of, you know, filings where, uh, you know, migrants were targeted right next, next 3 attacks. and, and so this was, you know, a moment for the community to kind of look beyond that. now, how far they're still tensions. of course there are and yesterday one of my colleagues spoke to someone named these attacks on the 25th
9:18 am
marcos decision german chancellor workers decision to to allow refugees into the country. and so there is either, this goes form part of the debate that's happening in germany, and those tensions are real and they're how got it on the ground today. that's a dw 0, lois's sanders. they're in zone and getting many, many thanks is always nice. for more analysis, i'm joined by raphael, both song who is a political scientist and deputy head of the research division of the german institute for international and security affairs. welcome to a dw ser, a 1st question for you. the islamic state has claimed responsibility for this attack with the details of this incident be consistent with its m o. in general terms, yes, i mean the islamic stage and various other groups present, particularly the iris has for long use this strategy to say no stripe than wherever
9:19 am
you can with whatever means you have at hands. including very simple ones like this kind of nice attack. but um, it is on so on a little bit more questionable because so far we haven't seen a personal statement, a recorded statement by the attacker claiming allegiance to the i s which was previously usually the case with other attacks. and in general, also there was of course, a debate. how active the i as in various areas still is that has to be the renew concerned with the i s. brands from us kind of done and practiced on area. this is a general clean by the i s a from syria. this is a bit of a surprise, but in general is plausible, but we need more information to confirm it. we might be on the same wavelength because i think you're bleeding into perhaps my 2nd question here. a,
9:20 am
some have doubted islamic states claim, why, i mean, do you centrally just answered, or is there more to say on that as well? they could be one or 2 extra points. that's yeah, to say like we don't have a real clear evidence based on the statement which in practical terms appear to be from the usual channels. and in that sense, authentic not there is no deeper connection yet with the attacker. and the i s, i mean, this is something of course the authorities will look into very intensively the next hours and days. but so far we don't know more. and this general claim that this is a revenge or an tax due to the situation in gaza. one of the palestinian fund is also somewhat questionable because previously they asked didn't really have a particular connection with this conflict and or would come us. but otherwise, of course, it could say generally situation is such that there was
9:21 am
a crime is off by islands and and the climate off trying to use any conflict to re draw attention to the i s and it's cost referral. i'm curious, said legislators had already been discussing a review of public safety laws. how likely is it this incident will now be to some kind of wide ban on knives and public as well? i mean, this is kind of, i don't want to be cynical, but the ritual in a way that after every incident, there is a search for new measures. and in all likelihood, yes. then we'll probably be some tossing up off laws on the caring of nice. as you said, this has been in the day for some time already, particularly after the stopping of a policeman of the faithful one in june this year in germany. but frankly, i don't see really the very big benefit of it because on one level we already have
9:22 am
relative restrict, i mean they can still restrictive relative to strict laws. gail, nice over a 12 centimeter lens are anyhow for people and then there was additional possibilities to banned by some particular locations that are even as small as 4 centimeters. and the question is really how to implemented into enforce it and to have the police and the kind of regulations that are actually trustworthy and realistic. and then in the ultimate so the festival like this, i think it's very, very hard to read the monitor. it also, yes, legal changes may be coming, but i think it's, we do the practice that is besides that you might have heard frustration that there was little to no surveillance film of the festival that night. and by extension images of the suspect. do you see public law enforcement stance on surveillance, changing due to this attack? well, again, this is also a long standing debate, and i,
9:23 am
i've already seen calls for more cctv. um, of course one can discuss sort of some adjustments here that there will be more as lee and permissions to have sort of mobile cameras and some kind of locations and some public events. but on the other hand, we really, i will personally, will think it's out of proportion to call now for a massive extension of the city. these, we don't want to live in a sorry for the power chinese state where there was a seem to be camera everywhere. and even so, you know, even if you have these, these, these, they may not stop somebody determined and this person dial turned himself him. so i don't think this is really the way forward. it may help in some points to get a better and quicker sort of a search for a man hunt. but as i said and wanted to her a determined terrorist from carrying out these things, our thanks to the time and perspective of political scientists,
9:24 am
