Worshippers become attack victims
A Tamil man wielding a samurai sword killed a woman and seriously injured three others in an attack during a Protestant church service in the southwestern city of Stuttgart on April 4. All the victims were Tamils.
A 25-year-old suffering from psychiatric problems was apprehended by police at the scene.
Germany has witnessed a spate of unrelated samurai sword attacks over the past year.
