ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT KILLED HIS GERMAN GIRLFRIEND, 17, ‘BECAUSE SHE REFUSED TO CONVERT TO ISLAM’

After lying about being a CHILD to slip into country

AN ILLEGAL immigrant, 30, has received life imprisonment for killing his 17-year-old German girlfriend “because she refused to convert to Islam”.

Identified as Ahmad S. due to privacy reasons, the Afghan was found guilty of murder by the district court of Flensburg in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany

The man turned out to be 11 years older than he claimed during his trial.

His ex, identified only by her first name Mireille, was stabbed 14 times in her flat, after she ended their relationship.

The court heard that the Afghan migrant was jealous she had found a new boyfriend, and hated that he could no longer control every aspect of her life.

Yet Ahmad S. denied the murder and claimed that someone else must have committed the crime.

He arrived in Germany in 2015 as an unaccompanied minor refugee and filed for asylum – which was rejected.

Ahmad S. claimed that he is currently 18 years old, but the court had doubts and ordered an age test.

Forensic expert Sabine Gumpert testified at the start of the trial that Ahmad S. was at least 21 years old and that her examination strongly suggested he could even be 29 years old.

“NARCISSISTIC PERSONALITY”

As a result, the court sentenced Ahmad S. in line with adult laws, instead of juvenile, which in Germany is customary for those under the age of 21.

This would have barred the judges from caging him for life.

RTL.de reports that Mireille and Ahmad S. were a couple for two years.

But he constantly tried to control the teen, and forbade her from meeting other men.

Fed up with the on-off, highly emotional relationship, Mireille dumped him in February last year, after she refused to convert to Islam and wear a headscarf, prosecutors said.

The court heard that he felt angry about the separation – Ahmad S. was described as a “narcissistic personality”, reports Welt.

Ahmad S. called the emergency services after he stabbed her 14 times with a kitchen knife on March 12, 2018.

He originally denied killing his ex, telling paramedics she had injured herself with the blade.

But evidence from his mobile phone, and images captured on CCTV, showed that he was in her apartment at the time of her death.

Welt says the case caused “nationwide horror and sadness because of the youthful age of the victim and the similarity to a case in the Rhineland-Palatinate Kandel, where a refugee from Afghanistan stabbed his underage ex-girlfriend a few months earlier.”

During sentencing, the judge told Ahmad S. he had disregarded the “personal value” of the teenager, whom he considered “his” property.

He will be caged for at least 15 years.
