A regional court in Potsdam has acquitted a 23-year-old migrant from Guinea of criminal responsibility for the January murder of a young CDU member in Beelitz and a separate knife attack on a woman, ruling that he was suffering from paranoid schizophrenia at the time of the crimes.
Mamadou Alpha B. will be committed on Thursday to a secure psychiatric facility indefinitely.
The court concluded that the Guinean, who arrived in Germany in 2016 and had no prior criminal record, was not in control of his actions due to a severe mental illness. “The defendant cannot be held criminally responsible,” presiding judge Bodo Wermelskirchen stated. “This was a treacherous murder, but the accused was mentally ill and is dangerous to the public.”
Remix News previously reported how, on Jan. 14, the migrant slit the throat of 24-year-old Christoph R., a neighbor and member of the CDU and its youth wing, the Junge Union. According to court testimony, Mamadou B. blindfolded the man, stabbed him to death, and then set his apartment on fire. He later called emergency services himself. The two men were previously acquainted, and the perpetrator claimed that they had met on multiple occasions, during which the victim allegedly blindfolded him and took photos in exchange for money.
The Guinean was arrested for another stabbing two weeks later, and police were able to connect him as a suspect to the previous murder of the CDU politician. This time, he targeted a 57-year-old Ukrainian woman, whom he stabbed in the neck in the same apartment building on Doktor-Hermann-Street.
The Ukrainian woman, who also had a personal relationship with the defendant, survived and testified during the trial.
On the first day of the trial at the Potsdam Regional Court, Mamadou B. admitted the charges, claiming that voices in his head ordered him to commit the crimes.
“I did it, I can’t change it. I feel like a stranger then, I can’t control myself,” he said.
Mamadou B. has reportedly been hearing voices since 2019, typically that of an older German woman, but had never sought treatment before his arrest. Psychiatric expert Jens Köhler described his condition as a long-term, deeply rooted form of schizophrenia. “He dissimulates, conceals symptoms, and is likely to abandon treatment outside a secure setting,” Köhler warned.
Since April, the migrant has been held at Asklepios Specialist Hospital in Brandenburg in a high-security ward reserved for dangerous offenders with psychiatric conditions. Despite treatment efforts, the clinic reported non-compliance with medication and had recently barred him from work due to security concerns.
As reported by Märkische Allgemeine Zeitung, Judge Wermelskirchen described Mamadou B. as an ongoing threat to society. “We have serious underlying offenses, and a serious dangerousness is evident,” he said, telling the defendant directly, “You are considered dangerous to the public. You lack a sound understanding of your illness and treatment.”
Mamadou B. had lived in Germany for nearly a decade and had worked in various sectors, including hospitality and nursing. His asylum application had been rejected due to previous applications in Italy and France, but he held a temporary residence permit at the time of the attacks.
Although the court did not rule on civil compensation claims, it suggested that B. may not be liable under civil law due to his mental condition. The victim’s mother is seeking at least €60,000 in damages.
The verdict is not yet final, and the defendant has one week to appeal the ruling.
