A migrant who decapitated his victim and caused her intestines to spill out while she was still alive could avoid deportation from Germany, because prosecutors believe he would simply return from Somalia.
Mursal Mohamed Seid, 24, killed his roommate Alex K., 52, in a homeless shelter in the Bavarian town of Regen in July 2021.
He stabbed his victim 111 times with a knife before decapitating him. Seid later told investigators he believed his roommate was possessed by two demons that he had to kill.
The attack was so violent that the victim’s intestines spilled out while he was still alive, German media reported at the time.
Seid is said to have committed the crime in a schizophrenic state and was therefore admitted to the maximum security ward of the district hospital in Mainkofen, Bavaria.
German immigration authorities want to deport him to his native Somalia as soon as possible, but prosecutors are hesitant to issue a deportation order because they believe the criminal would return to Germany anyway, the tabloid reported. Image information.
Mursal Mohamed Seid (pictured), 24, killed his roommate Alex K., 52, in a homeless shelter in the Bavarian town of Regen in July 2021.
Just weeks after killing his roommate, the Somali man tried to escape from the maximum security ward of a Bavarian hospital where he is being held by hiding in a food cart.
Seid made a second escape attempt last week, managing to evade his female caregivers (a psychologist and an intern) while attending a family screening of a Disney movie a week ago.
He was on the run for eight hours before 100 police officers deployed to hunt him down three miles from the cinema.
Prosecutors have been examining whether Seid’s sentence in the secure hospital ward could be waived so he could be deported to Somalia for two years.
Attorney General Oliver Baumgartner told Bild: “The overall assessment prescribed must include, among other things, the seriousness of the crime, the dangerousness of the convicted person and the likelihood that he or she will return to Germany.
“In this regard, it had to be taken into account that the convicted man would be at liberty in his country of origin and that there was no guarantee that he would receive adequate treatment. His return to Germany was considered possible.”
Although prosecutors are hesitant to sign the deportation order, Said also wrote a letter saying he refuses to be deported to Somalia in February.
Despite concerns about the progress of Seid’s treatment, he was given a lower level of security that allowed him to leave the hospital accompanied by a caregiver.
“The basic aim is to test the patient’s ability to recover outside the clinical environment and prepare them for later reintegration into society,” district spokeswoman Sabine Baeter told Bild.
He stabbed his victim 111 times with a knife before decapitating him at the homeless shelter in Regen, Bavaria. Seid later told investigators he believed his roommate was possessed by two demons he had to kill.
But Bavarian Interior Minister Joachim Herrmann questions the decision to allow Seid a visit to the cinema.
He said Image“I will launch a thorough investigation to determine why the district hospital allowed this dangerous man to go to the cinema.”
Seid arrived in Germany as part of an asylum seeker programme in 2018 after fleeing Somalia to Sudan and then Libya, the German outlet reported. Child.
Prior to the brutal murder of his flatmate, Seid had already racked up convictions for causing bodily harm, robbery, theft along with attempting to cause dangerous bodily harm and fraudulently obtaining services.
In February 2021, he received a two-year suspended sentence for these crimes, but because he was not jailed, he was allowed to return to the homeless shelter where he lived, where he ended up killing his roommate.
