unknown Afghan man
The 28-year-old Afghan man was in the news due to his involvement in a tragic incident on January 22, 2023, in Aschaffenburg, where he allegedly fatally stabbed a two-year-old boy and a 41-year-old man who attempted to help him, as well as injuring three others. He had recently arrived in Germany as an asylum seeker and experienced significant delays in his asylum application process, which later complicated his legal status and subsequent actions. Reports indicate that he may have been suffering from mental health issues and had a history of violent behavior.
