Migrant who beheaded victim and disemboweled him while he was still alive can avoid deportation from Germany ‘because he is likely just returning from Somalia’

A migrant who beheaded his victim and disemboweled him while he was still alive could avoid deportation from Germany, after prosecutors believe he may simply return from Somalia.

Mursal Mohamed Seid, 24, murdered his 52-year-old roommate Alex K. in a homeless shelter in the Bavarian town of Regen in July 2021.

He stabbed his victim 111 times before decapitating him. Seid later told investigators that he believed his roommate was possessed by two demons that he had to kill.

The attack was so violent that the victim’s intestines jumped out while he was still alive, German media reported at the time.

Seid is said to have committed the crime while suffering from a schizophrenic delusion and was therefore admitted to the high-security ward of the district hospital in Mainkofen, Bavaria.

German immigration authorities want to send him back to his native Somalia as soon as possible, but prosecutors are reluctant to issue a deportation order because they believe the criminal would return to Germany anyway, the tabloid reported. Image defeated.

Just weeks after killing his roommate, the Somali man tried to escape from the maximum-security ward of a Bavarian hospital where he was being held, hiding in a food cart.

Seid made a second escape attempt last week, eluding his female supervisors – a psychologist and an intern – when he attended a family screening of a Disney film a week ago.

He was on the run for eight hours before the 100 police officers deployed in the search found him three miles from the cinema.

The Public Prosecution Service is investigating whether the sentence Seid served in the secure hospital ward can be waived so that he can be deported to Somalia for two years.

Chief Public Prosecutor Oliver Baumgartner told Bild: “The prescribed overall assessment must include, among other things, the seriousness of the crime, the dangerousness of the convicted person and the likelihood of the convicted person returning to Germany.

‘In this regard, it was necessary to take into account the fact that the convicted person would be free in his home country and that there is no guarantee that he will be treated well. A return to Germany was considered possible.’

While prosecutors hesitated to sign the deportation order, Said also wrote a letter in February indicating his refusal to be deported to Somalia.

Despite concerns about the progress of Seid’s treatment, he was given a lower security level, allowing him to leave the hospital grounds with an escort.

“The main goal is to test the patient’s resilience outside the clinical environment and prepare him for later reintegration into society,” district spokeswoman Sabine Baeter told Bild.

However, Bavarian Interior Minister Joachim Herrman questions the decision to grant Seid a cinema visit.

He told Image: ‘I will conduct a thorough investigation into why the district hospital allowed this extremely dangerous man to go to the cinema in the first place.’

Seid came to Germany in 2018 as part of an asylum seekers program after fleeing Somalia to Sudan and then Libya, the German Press Agency reported Nius.

Before the brutal murder of his roommate, Seid had already been convicted of bodily harm, theft, theft in combination with attempted serious bodily harm and fraudulently obtaining services.

In February 2021, he was given a two-year suspended sentence for the crimes, but because he was not incarcerated, he was allowed to return to the homeless shelter where he was living, where he eventually murdered his roommate.
