A woman has died from injuries sustained after a man drove a car into a German Christmas market last month, bringing the total death toll from the attack to six.<\/p>\n
The 52-year-old died in hospital two weeks after the car ploughed into the packed market in Magdeburg, prosecutors said.<\/p>\n
At least 299 people were injured in the attack on 20 December, according to the latest figures from the interior ministry of Saxony-Anhalt.<\/p>\n
Four other women aged 45 to 75, and nine-year-old Andr\u00e9 Glei\u00dfner<\/a> were also killed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The Federal Victims’ Commissioner Roland Weber told German media that as many as 531 people may have been traumatised or suffered economic losses as a result of the attack.<\/p>\n Fifty-year-old Taleb al-Abdulmohsen was arrested at the scene, but the suspected attacker’s motives remain unclear.<\/p>\n He has lived in Germany since 2006 and is described as a Saudi psychiatrist who was living about 50km (30 miles) south of Magdeburg, in the town of Bernburg.<\/p>\n Abdulmohsen was granted asylum in 2016 and ran a website that aimed to help other former Muslims flee persecution in their Gulf homelands.<\/p>\n In many online posts Abdulmohsen voiced strongly anti-Islam views and support for far-right conspiracy narratives on the “Islamisation” of Europe.<\/p>\n German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser said it was “clear to see” the suspect held “Islamophobic” views.<\/p>\n “The perpetrator does not fit into any previous categorisation. Every stone will be turned over here,” she said.<\/p>\n Abdulmohsen has been ordered into pre-trial detention on counts of murder, attempted murder and dangerous bodily harm.<\/p>\n
