The fifth alleged perpetrator in the case of the spectacular Dresden jewelery theft has again escaped the police.
A special task force (SEK) and investigators from the State Criminal Police Office in Saxony searched an apartment in Berlin-Neukölln on Tuesday morning.
However, they did not find the 21-year-old man from an Arab clan they were looking for, as the Dresden public prosecutor announced.
Only two cell phones and several documents were confiscated.
"We had a legitimate assumption that he was in the apartment," said the spokesman for the Dresden public prosecutor, Lorenz Haase.
The aim of the search was to arrest the suspect.
But Abdul R. was not found in the apartment in the Rudow district.
"The search for him continues with high pressure and also publicly."
On November 25th, 2019, several perpetrators stole jewels with a barely estimable value from the famous treasury of the Grünes Gewölbe in Dresden during one of the most spectacular break-ins of the past decades.
Conjectures and traces quickly led to Berlin.

Almost a year later, on November 17, 2020, the police struck with a major raid.
She arrested three suspicious young men from the well-known Remmo family of Arab origin and found tools, hard drives, computers, cell phones, as well as machetes, axes and alarm weapons.
Two 21-year-old twin brothers escaped during the night.
They were searched for internationally.
Special investigators from the criminal police set themselves on their trail, initially with success.
On December 14th, a special task force arrested one of the twins in Neukölln.
According to media reports, the man visited a friend there.
A public prosecutor's spokesman said about the fugitive brother at the time: "We are confident that we will be able to arrest him promptly." That did not work as quickly as we had hoped.
The other four suspects are still in custody in Dresden.
