Wiesbaden (dpa / lhe) - Almost a year after the racially motivated attack with nine dead in Hanau, the Left parliamentary group is calling for quick answers to the open questions about the circumstances of the crime.

The Federal Prosecutor General and Interior Minister Peter Beuth (CDU) would have to provide information at the meeting of the Interior Committee next week, said interior expert Hermann Schaus on Thursday in the Hessian state parliament in Wiesbaden.

A corresponding report from the Left is on the agenda for next Thursday's meeting (February 11th).

On February 19 last year, the 43-year-old German Tobias R. shot nine people with foreign roots.

After that he is said to have killed his mother and ultimately himself.

Before the act, the man had posted pamphlets and videos of conspiracy theories and racist views on the Internet.

«Why was the perpetrator able to legally own weapons, although since 2002 he has repeatedly appeared aggressive and delinquent with delusions?

Why did the police emergency call systems not work properly and is this obviously still the case today?

And what role did the assassin's father play before and on the night of the crime? ”Said Schaus the open questions from the perspective of the left-wing faction.

SPD parliamentary group leader Nancy Faser said in the state parliament that the interior minister only released essential information under public pressure.

The CDU politician lacks both the will to provide information and empathy for the victims of Hanau and their survivors.

The Interior Minister pointed out that the Federal Public Prosecutor's Office had taken over the investigation.

Therefore, neither the Hessian police nor the Ministry of the Interior could give specific information on the night of the crime because of the ongoing investigation.

Comprehensive information will only be available after the procedure has been completed.

The Minister of the Interior again stood behind the work of the Hessian police.

All necessary police measures were taken after the fact.

The work of the Federal Public Prosecutor's Office is fully supported.

Beuth recently admitted a bottleneck in the emergency call to the Hanau police station on the night of the crime.

The police station only received a limited number of calls that night.
