(Wien) Lorenz K a 18 year old teen has been charged in
Austria on charges of attempting to carry out a terrorist attack in both Austria
and Germany in 2016. Lorenz K.the son of Albanian parents, born and raised in Austria,
is said to have produced a nail bomb, of planning attacks in Germany and Austria, and brainwashing a 12-year-old Iraqi child to carry out aattack on a Christmas market in November 2016, which failed due to technical
problems. It transpires that Lorenz K was radicalised inside prison in
2015 at the age of 16 inside prison during a stretch for robbery. On his
release he fell under the spell of Austrian hate preacher Mirsad Omerovic who was jailed for 20 years in 2016 for…
recruiting volunteers for Islamic State who convinced him to do his bit for
ISIS inside Europe.
The charges state that he downloaded instructions from the
internet on how to make a bomb, sent them to the Iraqi child via messenger
service Whatsapp whom he had brainwashed to join his nefarious club. The 12-year-old, who was born in Germany to Iraqi parents,
created a device containing fireworks powder and nails and attempted to blow it
up at the Ludwigshafen Christmas market on November 26th 2016.
Thankfully it failed to detonate. The boy tried again on December 5th, but this time a pedestrian spotted the bag containing the explosive device and alerted police. Since being detained the 12-year-old has been under special state care in Germany because he is too young to face criminal charges.
