Berlin: 33 -year -old sentenced to three and a half years in prison - battle for ISIS in Syria planned

The Berlin Chamber Court sentenced a 33-year-old man named Ahmad H. I to three and a half years in prison. He was guilty that he wanted to make his way to Syria to join the Islamic State (ISIS) jihadist militia. The judge Doris Husch emphasized that the accused had not yet had any extremist views when he entered Germany in 2015 and that it would only have been radicalized here. A radical Islamist from Syria, whom he got to know on Facebook, also made a contribution to this.

in April 2019 Ahmad H. I. traveled to Syria again to be trained militically and fight for the militia. However, it was decided on site that he was more useful for ISIS in the West. Due to a broken femoral neck, he could not fight and instead took care of female ISIS members in the prison camp al-Holz and organized their escape.

in October 2019 he returned to Berlin to take care of his injury. There he continued his activities for the militia by sending execution and propaganda vavors, transferring money to imprisoned ISIS supporters and procuring weapons for the militia. He was arrested in August 2022 and has been in custody since then.

The trial against Ahmad H. I. began in June, in which he partially granted the accusations made. The court decided that a prison sentence of three and a half years was appropriate and remained just under the request of the federal prosecutor, who had requested four years in prison. The defense advocated a mild punishment, but did not submit a specific application.
