Düsseldorf (dpa / lnw) - Of the 176 ATM blasts in North Rhine-Westphalia last year, a good every fourth crime has already been cleared up.
That is 47 out of 176 acts, which corresponds to a clear-up rate of 26.7 percent.
This emerges from a report by the NRW interior ministry to the state parliament in response to a request from the AfD parliamentary group.
27 suspects were arrested.
Of these, 19 can be attributed to the Moroccan scene of machine sprinklers in Utrecht and Amsterdam.
The proportion of unsuccessful explosive attacks increased from 43 percent in 2015 to 67 percent in 2020.
This is an indication of the effectiveness of the improved security measures.
However, the perpetrators also used “increasingly brutal methods” to overcome them.
The number of blasting attacks on ATMs rose to a record level in the past year.
The perpetrators have stolen several million euros in the past few years and also caused millions in damage from the explosions.

The investigators of the LKA special commission "Heat" assume that many of the explosions are due to a scene of around 300 Moroccan immigrants from Utrecht in the Netherlands.
