Germanys president frank vaulters steinmeyer among those taking part signs of attack still imprinted on the synagogue door which stopped the attacker claiming 50 more lives in trial but the 2 mum still trying to process it all but i just cant understand what tacitus a 40 year old woman was the 1st to fall victim by chance as she passed in front of the synagogue minutes later the attacker killed a 20 year old man at a could bob shop some streets away.

The 27 year old lived here with his mother he grew up in nearby hillbrow former neighbors remember him. Even hostis by without ever smiling he couldnt say hello. How can i say he does because he was kind of a loner. Wednesday afternoon the suspect was transferred to karlsruhe meanwhile a judge issued an arrest warrant germanys federal prosecutor said his attempted massacre was an act of terrorism. He was attempting to imitate similar acts that had previously been carried out. And as far as we know he wanted to instigate others to do the same so. Im chieftain. Germanys interior minister horses a home for visited the crime scene authorities have defended lack of Police Protection at the synagogue saying there had been no warning. They hope for delivered a clear message he says will tell if. Crime carried out yesterday is a shame on our country. With our history of such things must never happen in germany. Hes pledged to improve the protection of jewish sites and deploy more personnel in the fight against right wing extremism his counterpart in the state of saxony and hold said some politicians carry the blame. Those who used the language of the nazis might not be legally responsible for what occurred. But they leave the path and let the fire guys to get on shift. Hundreds joined in a march of mourning through hollow to the synagogue laying flowers and candles signs of their rejection of terrorism and those who spread hate. Earlier we spoke to an eyewitness who was inside the synagogue in hala at the time of the attack of this is how she described the events and where where i actually right in the middle of reading torah when so what i saw and heard was like one explosion followed by a smoke like a cloud of smoke that i saw through the window another explosion another cloud of smoke and then for some seconds like everyone was silent and confused because no one really understood what was happening and then all of a sudden things move super fast and so theres a surveillance camera outside and the strain inside so you can see whats happening on the street and the cantor who was leading the prayer he had for some reason when he turned like sort of around he had a perfect view of the screen so he saw what was happening on the street so he saw that there was an armed man outside in full gear i had i didnt see the screen so i actually was like really thanks to the cantor who had a press and amazing reaction who immediately understood the situation a 1000000 or so was happening look at the screen turn around and told everyone to like leave the room go to the back room and then actually go up stairs and get down on the floor stay away from the windows its like you know you switch until the kind of mode where. Youre not really thinking about what exactly is happening but more like what needs to be done and what needs to be done is like to get people into a safe room and then sort of like make sure that were all ok a harrowing account there what it was like inside the synagogue and hala when it was being attacked our Political Correspondent simon young has been following this story i know youre also following the investigation into it very carefully simon what more have the police learned about the gunman and what motivated him to carry out this attack if so this investigation as weve heard is now being handled by federal prosecutors because its a terror investigation and theyre saying that this man 27 year old german babies hes been identified has been formally charged with 2 counts of murder and several counts of attempted murder and they are saying that he had 4 homemade weapons with him including at least one fully automatic rifle he also had 4 kilograms of explosives in his car with several explosive charges there ready so he clearly intended to carry out mass killing a massacre as the authorities of calling it and one of the questions that prosecutors are looking at is where did he get those explosives from how was he able to make these weapons did he have any help as well will be a key focus for what prosecutors want to know about him the German Government now says that the threat of rightwing terrorism in this country is very high what are they planning to do about it well there are many things that you can think of doing 1st of all the focus is on protecting germanys Jewish Population. In particular in view of history of course its very important the politicians have been saying that that you know home does not come. People particularly when theyre attending jewish religious worship but in really in whatever context they are so you can put more Police Outside synagogues and all the jewish installations schools and so on thats one thing you can do you can also give the police more powers to challenge people who they think pose a threat and you can also give the courts more powers to put people away or treat the more severely so all these things are being considered theyve been suggested before incidentally of course its always a question of a balance between peoples freedoms and taking the necessary action the. Interior minister suggested that hate speech contributed to the attack and he said those who use the language of the nazis laid the path and lit the fire this will presumably focus even more attention on the problem of hate speech in germany want to i think it were ready has i think people who are already talking about that whats the link between what people say and what they ultimately do the Justice Minister minister Christina Lamb back to said you know that far right extremism is becoming a real threat to German Security generally all the politicians including the. Gym the bavarian interior minister have pointed specifically the finger at the far right turn that if Germany Party all day although they strenuously deny that they say that theyve always stood up for germanys Jewish Population but clearly there are some in their ranks who have used nazi terminology and its not just politicians its on social media elsewhere on the internet theres been a rise experts say in hate speech in recent years and goes its very difficult to know what you can do about that as a limit to how you can control social media and the internet and indeed weve seen this this gunmans head cam video for instance shed many times already were not showing it now the media are not showing it but on far right websites it is available sadly simon thank you very much a Political Correspondent simon young.
