"Straight from Prison to Accusations: Syrian Clan Linked to Over 150 Crimes"
In the city of Stuttgart, Germany, a Syrian family has found itself at the centre of a controversy, with reports of over 150 offenses, ranging from attempted murder to social welfare fraud, attributed to them. However, the specific details of these allegations are yet to be fully verified.
The family, which consists of 13 members, has had a significant presence in the city's criminal landscape. Six of its members are currently in prison, serving sentences for attempted manslaughter among other crimes. A 15-year-old member was recently suspected of involvement in an assault in mid-June, and a video of the incident was found on his phone, leading to the seizure of the device.
Investigators have also been looking for evidence of social welfare fraud by a 44-year-old member of the family. Three of the brothers were recently charged for attacking three people with a knife in the pedestrian zone, causing serious injuries.
Despite these incidents, official verification of the family's alleged involvement in widespread criminal activities and social welfare fraud remains elusive. While the city of Stuttgart is working closely with the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees to deport relevant family members as soon as the legal and factual conditions are met, no specific official calls or legal proceedings concerning the deportation of this family have been found.
The lack of immediate action on the part of authorities has drawn criticism from Mayor Frank Nopper (CDU), who has advocated for the swift deportation of these individuals. Nopper believes that the rule of law should not become a "night watchman state" and that criminals should not continue to live in Germany, endangering peaceful coexistence, and receiving social benefits.
The family arrived in Germany between 2015 and 2020 and currently holds refugee or subsidiary protection status. The father of the family is known to the police and resides with two wives and more than ten children at a Zuffenhausen address.
It is important to note that while the broader issue of migrants involved in serious crimes or social welfare fraud is a topic of public and political discourse in Germany, the specific case of the Stuttgart Syrian family is still under investigation.
The most authoritative information available pertains to prosecutions of former Syrian combatants for war crimes tried in Stuttgart under universal jurisdiction, rather than broad claims about a family’s criminal enterprise or welfare fraud, which remain largely unverified in credible sources.
