Potsdam - A 48-year-old man suspected of sabotage on the power grid in several German states has been taken into custody. According to a spokesperson for the prosecutor's office in Cottbus, authorities accuse him of triggering a blast explosion, disrupting public services, and destroying vital equipment. The suspect is expected to be transferred to Cottbus Regional Court, though the exact timing of his arrival is still unclear.
Typically, such transfers involve collective transports, the spokesperson explained. Currently, the suspect is being held by police in Aachen and will soon be moved to a regional detention facility nearby. Authorities believe the suspect attempted to sabotage power lines near coal-fired power plants in multiple locations across North Rhine-Westphalia, Brandenburg, and Saxony.
He was arrested on Tuesday near the Weisweiler power plant in Aachen during a large-scale operation.
