Advent asylum seekers calls less violence on

Life was Raymond s. (34) from Enschede rear. Many private problems. And he was also concerned about ' the asylum seekers ' that on new year's Eve in Germany dozens of women were sexually assaulted. Just such a resettling refugees would also in Enschede.

So Raymond found himself suddenly with four friends and two fire bombs back in his barn and then at the local mosque, as he explained yesterday crying for the Court in Almelo. They wanted the municipalities ' intimidated '. Then the drivers might refrain from asylum Center.

It takes the matter high on: arson with terrorist intent. There were several people, including children, in the building. The molotov cocktails were not the mosque, there was no one injured.

Protest March Raymond s. and the other suspects are acquaintances from Enschede. Cory B (34), Danny h. (24) and Marco h. (36), those over a month, played a prominent role in the protests against the arrival of a azc in Enschede. Two weeks before the incendiary bomb towards the mosque went, ran Danny h. in a protest March. He wore a sweater with the abbreviation DTG it, of the action group of protesters Against municipalities. That group participated in azc-protests throughout the country. In Enschede were during the March not only slogans against the azc, but also against islam called, according to media reports.

Danny h. said for ' non-violent protest ', a few weeks later he was arrested on suspicion of throwing an incendiary bomb. At the time of their arrest were h. and his friends already with quarrel at DTG left. She stepped over to the Dutch Self Defense Army (DSDA), a group that is against the "Islamisation of Europe". She wants to ' that Netherlands is giving back to the Dutch '.

Researchers have been warning for a while for the mixing of anti-azc-protests with extreme right-wing activist groups. Use the refugees, such groups, discussion for some time to be able to profile themselves, "says Cyriel Talukdar, Director of anti-discrimination-organization Radar. The National Coordinator for combating terrorism and security (NCTV) suggested in March that "the discontent around the influx of asylum seekers will result in an increase in extremism '.

But over the past few weeks, there have been no more major incidents occurred. ,, The violence of then it was occasional, it doesn't show any trend, "said a spokesman for the national police. ,, We notice now that there are fewer incidents are in discussions about the possible arrival of a azc. "

Excuse letter yet there are protests against the arrival of asylum seekers. But at the protest against the arrival of three Eritrean refugees in a terraced house in Oss went last week no stones through the Windows, but went there scales with baklava and bitter balls around.

At the beginning of this year, the situation would be still can escalate, feared culture historian Gerard Rooijakkers, sure as rural groups were going to interfere with the discussion. , People felt, not heard, but the authorities are better on the go. Debates and public participation are better organized. Let's be happy that there are fewer incidents, but above all don't think it couldn't happen. "

The Court decided yesterday that Raymond s. provisionally fixed. Raymond itself has many regrets. He has an excuse letter from his cell to the mosque.
