Police reported that the Munich car ramming attack, which injured 36 people, may have Islamist motivations. The suspect, a 24-year-old Afghan named Farhad N, has no links to terrorist groups and was in Germany legally after his asylum application was rejected. Investigations into his background and contacts are ongoing. Chancellor Olaf Scholz emphasized the need for strict punishment, especially as the incident coincides with the Munich Security Conference and upcoming national elections, reflecting rising security concerns in Germany.
"This perpetrator cannot hope for any leniency. He must be punished and he must leave the country," Scholz told reporters.
Investigations into his contacts and online communications are underway to establish his potential motivation for the attack.
