德國拘留一名柏林恐襲嫌疑人

German prosecutors have detained a Tunisian suspected of involvement in last week’s terror attack on a Berlin Christmas market where 12 people were killed.

德國檢方拘留了一名涉嫌參與上週柏林聖誕市場恐怖襲擊案的突尼斯人。那次襲擊導致12人遇難。

The prosecutors said the man’s phone number was stored in the mobile phone of Anis Amri, the 24-year-old Tunisian who is believed to have carried out the December 19 attack and was killed in a shootout with Italian police near Milan on Friday.

德國檢方表示，阿尼斯•阿姆裏(Anis Amri)的手機中存有該男子的手機號碼。阿姆裏是24歲的突尼斯人，被認爲實施了12月19日的襲擊事件，於上週五在米蘭附近與意大利警方交火中被擊斃。

“Further investigations indicate that he could have been involved in the attack,” the statement said. It said the 40-year-old suspect’s flat and office had been searched.

檢方在一份聲明中表示，“進一步調查表明，他可能參與了那次襲擊。”聲明中還稱，已搜查了這名40歲嫌疑人的公寓和辦公室。

Investigators believe it was Amri who drove a stolen lorry through the market near the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial church in the heart of west Berlin, injuring 55 people.

調查人員認爲，正是阿姆裏駕駛一輛盜來的貨車，在西柏林中心地區威廉皇帝紀念教堂(Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church)附近的一個市場橫衝直撞，造成12人死亡和約50人受傷。

One of the 12 was the Polish truck driver who was found dead in the passenger seat. The militant group Isis claimed responsibility.

在12名死者中，有1人是波蘭籍卡車司機，他被發現死在乘客座位上。好戰組織“伊斯蘭國”(Isis)聲稱對此事負責。

Prosecutors have until Thursday to determine whether the case against the man held on Wednesday is strong enough for them to issue a formal arrest warrant. That would allow them to keep him in custody pending possible charges.

檢方到週四才能判定，針對週三扣押的人的涉案證據是否足夠讓他們發出正式逮捕令。那樣就可以繼續拘留他，等待可能的指控。
