Germany to Deport Leader of Banned Islamic Center
29th August 2024
Investigators swooped on the Hamburg Islamic Center five weeks ago after concluding it was an “Islamist extremist organization” with links to Iran and Lebanon’s Hezbollah group.
Mohammad Mofatteh, 57, the former director of the center, has been ordered to leave Germany within 14 days and faces deportation if he does not comply, the spokesperson said.
He will not be allowed to re-enter Germany and could face up to three years in prison if he does.
