Illerkirchberg (dpa/lsw) - After the violent crime against two girls in Illerkirchberg near Ulm, the AfD protested at a rally against migration policy in Germany. The party called Saturday's action in front of the town hall a "silent commemoration event". A spokesman for the party spoke of around 70 to 90 people. A spokeswoman for the Alb-Donau-Kreis district office estimated the number of participants at 120 to 150 people.
On Monday morning, a man from Eritrea is said to have attacked two girls on their way to school in Illerkirchberg and injured them so badly that a 14-year-old died. The second girl, 13 years old, was probably seriously injured with a knife. Arrest warrants for murder and attempted murder have been issued against the 27-year-old suspect. According to the prosecutor, he is in a prison hospital and is silent on the allegations.
