‘At Least Six Dead’ In Munich Shopping Centre Shooting

At least six people are believed to have been killed in a shooting rampage in a Munich shopping centre on Friday, a police source said, and three armed suspects are at large. The shooting spree began before 1600 GMT at a McDonald’s restaurant and continued on a nearby street before the gunmen moved into the mall near the Olympic stadium in the southern German city, a police spokeswoman said. “There are several dead and injured,” the spokeswoman said, without confirming the death toll of six. Munich’s main train station has been evacuated and metro and bus transport in the city suspended, officials said. Three gunmen were involved in the shooting, according to a police statement, citing witnesses. There was no information about the possible motives of the attack. Europe has been on alert for terrorism in the wake of a string of attacks including bombings in neighbouring France and Belgium. The OEZ shopping centre was surrounded by armed police, while a helicopter buzzed overhead. ‘Stay in your homes’ “There is a major police operation under way in the shopping centre,” Munich police said on Twitter, urging people to avoid the area. Emergency vehicles were seen in the streets outside, as shoppers rushed away from the mall, some carrying children in their arms. “Attention — avoid the neighbourhood around the OEZ. Stay in your homes. Leave the street,” the Munich police tweet said. Germany has so far escaped the kind of large-scale jihadist attacks seen in France. But the shooting comes just days after a teenage asylum seeker went on a rampage with an axe and a knife on a regional train in Germany on Monday, injuring five people, two of them critically. One victim is still fighting for his life, the hospital treating him said Friday. ‘Inspired’ by IS’ Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere said the teenager was believed to be a “lone wolf” attacker who appeared to have been “inspired” by the Islamic State group but was not a member of the jihadist network. Authorities said he shouted “Allahu akbar” (God is greatest) three times as he ran through the carriage slashing passengers on the train near the southern city of Wuerzburg. The attacker is believed to be either Afghan or Pakistani and investigators are still trying to determine his identity. The train rampage triggered calls by politicians in Bavaria, of which Munich is the capital, to impose an upper limit on the number of refugees coming into the country. The assailant had arrived as an unaccompanied minor in Germany in June 2015 and had been staying with a foster family in the region of the attack for the last two weeks. A record 1.1 million migrants and refugees were let in to Germany last year, with Syrians making up the largest group followed by Afghans. In the latest attack in France, 31-year-old Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel used a truck to mow down 84 people, including children, in the Riviera city of Nice last week. It was the third major attack on French soil in the past 18 months, after the jihadist carnage in Paris in November and the shootings at satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo and a kosher supermarket in January 2015. In March, Islamic State claimed suicide bomb attacks at Brussels airport and a city metro station left 32 people dead. In May in Germany, a mentally unstable 27-year-old man carried out a knife attack on a regional train in the south of the country, killing one person and injuring three others.

Rivers Re-run: INEC Denies Alleged Yakubu, APC Secret Meeting

The Independent National Elector*l Commission (INEC) has denied allegations by Rivers governor, Nyesom Wike, that its National Chairman, Prof. Mahmud Yakubu, had met secretly with All Progressives Congress (APC) officials. Wike had alleged that Yakubu met with APC Chairman in the state, Mr Davies Ikanya and Sen. Magnus Abe on Wednesday in Abuja. He had alleged that the action of the commission was inimical to credible legislative rerun elections scheduled for July 30 in Rivers. Deputy Director, Voter Education and Publicity in INEC, Mr Nick Dazang, admitted to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Friday that the meeting held but that it was a routine. He said that it was INEC’s policy to meet with leadership of political parties involved in elections. “The INEC Chairman with three National Commissioners and two directors met with a delegation of the APC led by its Deputy National Chairman. “The meeting was routine and was earlier requested by the leadership of that party. “Similar routine meetings between INEC and other parties had taken place at the INEC Headquarters. “It is INEC’s policy and this is being strictly adhered to under Prof. Yakubu’s watch to avoid any suspicion or allegation of bias. “The chairman meets leaders of political parties in the presence of the national commissioners. “It is therefore not true that the meeting was secret as alleged by Gov. Wike or intended to favour the APC,’’ Dazang said. He, therefore, expressed the commission’s commitment to credible elections. “The commission is determined to conduct free, fair and transparent elections in Rivers by providing a level field and carrying all stakeholders along,’’ he said.

No Smoke Without Fire, Mourinho Says On Pogba Affair

French midfielder Paul Pogba is a target for Manchester United their manager Jose Mourinho all but confirmed to the BBC in an interview given in China. The Portuguese handler told the BBC it would be pointless to pull the wool over their eyes and say he and United weren’t courting Italian champions Juventus’s 23-year-old playmaker — who could cost the English club a world record £100million ($131m, 119m euros) just four years after he left them for £800,000. “You have smoke, you have fire,” said Mourinho, who is in China with the squad for a friendly tournament involving Manchester City — managed by his bitter rival Pep Guardiola — and Borussia Dortmund. “I am not going to try to make you naive and believe that we are not trying for one player.” However, Mourinho, who replaced the sacked Louis van Gaal shortly after the Dutchman had overseen United win the FA Cup last season, said if the Pogba deal fell through there was a fallback option. Pogba’s French international team-mate the tireless Paris Saint Germain midfielder Blaise Matuidi has been mentioned as an alternative. “We set four targets for us, we got three of them and we are going to get the fourth,” said Mourinho. “We established the profile of four players to improve the squad, to give us more options, especially adapted to my way of thinking about football. “Everybody speaks about one, but it wouldn’t be a surprise for me if it is not him and it is another one because we went for profile. “We have two more options in front of us and we are going to close one.” Mourinho’s three successful forays nto the market since he took over have been bringing veteran striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic in on a free transfer, signing young Ivory Coast defender Eric Bailly for a reported £30million from Villarreal and splashing out a fee believed to be between £26 million and £35m for Armenian Henrikh Mkhitaryan from Dortmund. United finished fifth in the Premier League last season, 15 points behind shock champions Leicester City, and failed to qualify for the Champions League. That prompted the club to sack Van Gaal and replace him with former Chelsea boss Mourinho

Italian Court Jails 3 Members Of A Nigerian Crime Gang For Attempted Murder, Armed Robbery & Drug-Dealing

An Italian court yesterday, July 22, sentenced three members of a Nigerian crime gang in Palermo, Sicily, to prison for various crimes including attempted murder. Prosecutors said the three Nigerians brought to Palermo the practices of the “Black Axe” cult, which Nigerian police said carried out ritual murders, mutilation and r*pe in the early 1990s. In Sicily, they used mafia techniques in carrying out attempted murder, armed robbery, bodily harm, prostitution, extortion and drug-dealing, and answered to Italy’s most storied mafia organisation, the Cosa Nostra, as if they were its subjects, prosecutors said. State prosecutors in Palermo say the mafia brings in drugs and the Nigerians distribute the among both Italian and African clients. The court’s verdict, reached on Wednesday, July 20 and made available on Friday, handed down sentences of 12 years and four months to the gang’s boss and just over 10 years each to two others. The group is believed to have attacked two people with bottles and axes late one night in January 2014 in Palermo’s Ballaro street market, where police later found the victims with gashed foreheads. The Black Axe was among several secret societies that took hold in Nigerian universities in the 1990s, allegedly attacking people on campus with guns and knives, raping women who refused to pay protection money and engaging in blood-drinking rituals. Prostitution is thought to be one of the most profitable businesses for the Nigerian gangs. According to police data, 90% of prostitutes in Palermo come from Nigeria.

Meet The Body Builder Who Sold His House To Fight ISIS Despite Having No Military Training Tim is believed to be the first British civilian without a military background to head to the front line to fight IS. Just a few months earlier he had left his comfortable life in Britain to fly to the war-torn region as a volunteer, to fight against IS with a Kurdish militia group. The 39-year-old sold everything he owned, including his home, and shut down his construction business after watching news reports of the atrocities carried out by IS terrorists. And now he tells his astonishing journey from builder to soldier in detail for the first time in his book, Fighting ISIS. Speaking in a London restaurant, he is very quick to downplay any talk of heroism. He says: “I’m just a guy who was lucky enough to get out there and do his tiny part.” It was August 2014 when Tim made the big decision to go. “I thought, ‘This is the worst thing that’s happening in the world and everyone says they’re appalled but they don’t do anything about it.’ “I started to question myself. I’m saying that people should be doing stuff but what am I doing about it?” At the time, Tim, who has also worked as a nightclub bouncer and prison officer, ran his construction business and had built himself the “perfect bachelor pad”, with a swimming pool and bar. But suddenly all those material possessions became meaningless. Apart from a select few friends, no one knew of his plans – not even his parents. “I didn’t know whether I would be stopped at the airport if word got out about why I was going, so I was careful who I told,” Tim says. “Friends knew my house was on the market and my cover story was that I was going to Turkey, as I’ve spent a lot of time out there.” His spare bedroom became his kit room as he bought body armour and other equipment online. “It’s amazing what you can buy on eBay when you know where to look,” he smiles. Tim also took a basic firearms training course but it “barely scratched the surface”. He flew out to the city of Sulaymaniyah, in Iraqi Kurdistan, in February 2015, to join the Christian militia called Dwekh Nawsha, which translates as the self-sacrificers.
