German police hunting for seven suicide bombers who planned to blow up Munich railway stations


#ISIS #suicidebomber #munich #Hauptbahnhof #terrorthreats German police are on the hunt for seven suspected suicide bombers who had drawn up plans to blow themselves up in Munich train stations during the New Year's Eve celebrations. The targeted railway stations are believed to have been the central Hauptbahnhof station and western Pasing station. These were shut down and special police units with automatic weapons were deployed to guard the entrances.
This has been reported in dailymail.co.uk dated 1 January 2016.
It seems information had been furnished by French and US intelligence agencies - they had even named the seven Iraqis who lived in Munich as the potential attackers, with possible links to ISIS.
Police have evacuated two Munich stations at around midnight following a tip off about a 'serious, imminent threat'. Teams of more than 500 officers were deployed to hunt the terrorists down but no arrests have been made.
The existence of a potential jihadi cell consisting of seven Iraqis had been reported by Bavarian state broadcaster BR citing anonymous sources. Munich police have refused to confirm the nationalities of the suspects or details of where they lived or whether a manhunt was underway.
