strong words to the breakdown in the case of Amri found Bruno Jost, in his first witness statement in November 2017 in front of the Amri Committee of inquiry. The investigating authorities would have been able to catch Amri, who had dealt drugs, “caught in the act in the drug trade, and arrested”, said the former special investigator of the state of Berlin and the Federal attorney a. D. in the house of representatives.

The safety authorities worked together poorly, Observation and telephone surveillance were not matched. And the Observation was set by the LKA, despite the decision of the Prosecutor’s office. “Because I lack the words,” said Jost, who will testify again on Friday as a witness in the Committee – however, in a non-public session.

Jost was sighted on behalf of the Committee files with the office of the attorney General and will report to the Committee which files are for which work may be important. If the Committee receives these requested files, in an ongoing investigative procedures are unlikely.

as before, it is not clear where Amri had the weapon he used in the attack. In the case of the assassination attempt on the Breitscheidplatz came on 19. December 2016, twelve people lost their lives.

Jost was LKA in the final report, serious allegations

Jost was in his in October of 2017, presented the final report to the office of criminal investigation, serious allegations. It had been a real chance to take Amri in custody. In almost all areas there had been “errors, omissions, irregularities, or organizational and structural deficiencies” against, noted Jost at the time.

The Committee of inquiry wants to hear on Friday, two more witnesses: A clerk in the LKA and LKA officials. The witness should be on cooperation with the Berlin public Prosecutor’s office and the office of the Prosecutor General Berlin information.

The LKA officials met several times to Amri and carried out in the course of other investigations, threat speeches at Amris Known Bilel Ben. On the day before the attack, Amri was sitting with Bilel Ben. There is evidence that A. could have been involved in the crime. A. scouted long before the attack on the breitscheidplatz, and took photos with his cell phone.

the Committee wants to work out the role of the intelligence services

The Federal Prosecutor’s office had suspected that A. could have been on the night she was killed also on the scene. This suspicion could not be substantiated. And a survey of Bilel Ben A. is no longer possible: He was deported after the attack.

The Berlin Committee also wants to work the role of the intelligence services. In the Bundestag Committee of inquiry is already investigating the role of the Federal office for the protection of the Constitution (BfV), which resulted in a V-man in the now banned Fussilet mosque.

“The role of the intelligence services to uncover very difficult for us,” said Green politician Benedikt Lux. The investigative Committee in the house of representatives will not finish its work by 2019, said the Chairman of the Committee, Stephan Lenz. He goes out of 2020.
