A girl was dragged into public toilets inside a playground, pinned to the ground and raped by two men in Germany, police have said.

One of the men was arrested on Friday but the other is now on the run, with police claiming he is an Afghan migrant who arrived in the country as an ‘unaccompanied minor’.

According to German newspaper Bild, he is 18 and is known to police for previous assault charges.

He allegedly held the 15-year-old victim down as the other man, a 21-year-old known only as Mohammad F, raped her.


On Friday afternoon, investigators found and arrested Mohammad F – also believed to be an Afghan migrant – in a refugee shelter in Massow, 33 kilometers away from where the attack took place, at a playground in Königs Wusterhausen, Brandenburg, just outside Berlin.

Mohammad F is now in custody but the second suspect is still wanted by police.



According to Bild, the teenager went into a police station in Brandenburg to report the crime on Thursday afternoon, two days after it took place.

She was so traumatized that police stopped questioning mid-way through and resumed the following day.

In the second part of her interview, the girl told police the name of the main offender.

His accomplice is believed to be on ‘holiday’ in another state, according to the head of the refugee centre where the main suspect was arrested.

Police said they only made the incident public today because they could not have named the offender.

However Bild reports a police source as saying: ‘The incident was kept under lock and key by the city and police, because they fear another reaction like what happened in Freiburg.’

The source was referring to an incident in the south-western city of Freiburg last month, in which an 18-year-old girl was gang raped in an attack allegedly orchestrated by a 22-year-old Syrian man.

It sparked outrage across Germany and led to a number of violent far right protests in the country.

According to the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF) in Germany, a considerable number of refugees that came to the country in 2015 and 2016 were children who arrived without their parents.

Child refugees, under the Child and Youth Welfare Act, ‘are accommodated, cared for and assisted by the youth welfare system in the same way that other minors are’, the govenrment said.

Whether they are given care and assistance in Germany is not dependent on their residential status in the same way that it is for adult refugees, BAMF said.
