Germany: Kosovar has been tried for four days, weapons arsenal found on the roof of the house

In June 2019, a special action directed by the Bavara Criminal Police Office in the Pedheim district of Dachau had to take place to open a metal box under the roof of a residence building.

The cops found an entire arsenal of weapons in it.

Two live hand grenades, a Kalashnikov, two semi-automatic weapons, a tracer shell, a hand grenade, several magazines and thousands of bullets.

The action in question brought the police's greatest findings recently to the Dachau district.

The suspect who was born and raised in Kosovo who owned the weapons illegally, since last Friday, has had to respond before the District Court of Munich II.

According to the indictment, it is accused of unauthorised and deliberate possession of four weapons of war and two hand weapons, as well as unauthorized ammunition maintenance and unauthorized treatment of “substance”, writes Suedddeutsche Zeitung.

The suspect is in custody in Munich Stadelheim since the launch of the police operation.

According to the German newspaper report, he has one wife and three young children.

His youngest child was born when he was in prison.

After the first four days of judgment, the accused's motive and the origin of weapons still remain unclear.

Many questions arise.

How does a German citizen have such an arsenal? Where did he get the weapons of war? And what would he do with weapons?

Following attacks like those at Halle or Christchurch, which was carried out by heavily armed authors, someone would like to know more about the sentences and motivation of the accused.

The 51-year-old was quietly protected in court.

Only his lawyer spoke up, accepting the prosecution's charges as true.

Information about personal circumstances and the accused's possible motive also remains unclear.

The suspect had served in the army before fleeing to Germany in 1992 when he was 21.

The reasons for his escape remain unknown.

In Germany, he worked for years in security services and in a trailer until he was arrested.

As a result of the war, 51-year-old still has problems, the lawyer says.

Investigations into another procedure in Schleswig-Holstein gave impetus to the investigation.

In this case, investigators came to Phelheim to search Kosovo's house with the support of officials from the Bavara Criminal Police Office.

One of the officials involved in the action has described the police operation in court.

“A pistol loaded with three mags and 13 loose shells was found in a bag on the first floor of the defendant's house. When 51-year-old was asked about other weapons, he showed a metal box under the roof of his two-locked house. To risk nothing, officials sought out a special technical group, especially after they had found a brochure on explosive devices at home. Officers opened the box, weapons were photographed and preserved. The suspect's vehicle and workplace were also searched with a police tracking dog”- the police official said.

Kosovar was questioned by police at Fürstenfeldbrock, while during receiving evidence, the Public Prosecutor's Office ruled out the possibility of a planned terrorist act.

The court expects to receive more information about the accused's motive in the coming days of judgment.

The decision will be pronounced no later than next Monday, October 12th.
