(IranWire) A German court has sentenced an Iranian man to four years in prison followed by preventive detention for planning an attack with deadly chemicals.
Dirk Kienitz, the presiding judge at the Dortmund regional court, said in his verdict that the 26-year-old defendant “was determined to carry out a terrorist attack using toxic substances,” according to a court statement.
The man, who was identified by prosecutors only as J.J. due to German privacy rules, was detained in the town of Castrop-Rauxel in January along with his older brother, who was later released.
