Berlin confirms to the ‘Post’ it banned Palestinian terrorist for 4 years When asked why the ban was restricted to four years Pallgen said that 'according to the requirements of German and European law, a ban on entry and residence must be limited in time.'

(Jerusalem Post) A spokesman for Berlin’s interior ministry told the Jerusalem Post on Tuesday that the government of the capital city imposed a four-year ban on the alleged Palestinian terrorist Khaled Barakat.

Martin Pallgen, spokesman for the interior ministry, told the Post “Mr. B. was expelled by the State Office for Immigration (former immigration office) in mid-February 2020 and blocked with a four-year new entry ban.”

When asked if the Post could receive a copy of the legal decision to prohibit Barakat’s entry to Germany, Pallgen replied: “In this case, this is not a [legal] judgment, but a decision from the LEA [State Office for Immigration]. For reasons of data protection, I cannot send this to you.”
