Wiesbaden/Hanau (dpa/lhe) - At its next meeting this Monday (from 9 a.m.), the state parliament's committee of inquiry into the racist attack in Hanau will deal with, among other things, how officials deal with survivors and relatives of the murder victims. Some of them had heavily criticized the work of the police, for example. Another topic of the session in the Wiesbaden state parliament is the allegedly locked emergency exit at one of the crime scenes.
A 43-year-old German shot nine people with racist motives in Hanau on February 19, 2020. Then he killed his mother and himself. The committee should clarify whether there was a failure of the authorities around the crime.
