Klaus Kandt: Islamic State and Berlin Police

klaus kandt: The detained suspect, a Pakistani who arrived in Germany last year, denied involvement in Monday's attack, and no forensic evidence showed he was in the cab of the truck, according to Hamilton Spectator. The Islamic State called the attacker a soldier of the militant group, its Amaq News Agency reported. We may still have a dangerous criminal out there, Berlin police chief Klaus Kandt said in acknowledging that the driver of the truck was still at large. Police urged people to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to a special hotline. Merkel and German President Joachim Gauck attended a memorial service Tuesday at the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church, near the deadly scene, and laid white roses outside the church. German Chancellor Angela Merkel called the incident an assumed terror attack. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
