In an incident that transpired early on the morning of August 20, 2025, a 43-year-old Afghan man was arrested by the Federal Police in Halle (Saale).

During the course of verifying his personal details, they discovered an arrest warrant issued by the Public Prosecutor's Office in Halle (Saale) seven days prior.

The man had been sentenced in May 2023 for threats and theft, with a fine of 1080 euros or 90 days of imprisonment. However, he failed to pay the outstanding amount of 408 euros, resulting in a warrant for his arrest.
