Car bombing in Munich: Life imprisonment for 25-year-old

A 25-year-old Afghan national has been sentenced to life imprisonment for a deadly car attack during a union demonstration in Munich. The Oberlandesgericht München determined the severity of his guilt, making parole after 15 years highly unlikely. The attacker, who drove into peaceful protesters in February 2025, caused severe injuries to a woman and her two-year-old daughter, resulting in their deaths. Numerous others were seriously injured, with some still suffering physical or psychological effects months later.
