An Afghan man has been sentenced to life in prison in Germany on Tuesday for a violent stabbing he was accused of which led to the death of a police officer and severe injury of five others at an anti-Islam rally last year.
This verdict is not an isolated event but a significant political enzyme in the overall charged atmosphere of a country where the anti-immigration debate is rife, along with rising support
for the country’s far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party.
