The Guardian’s Europe editor Ian Traynor has more on the German arrest linked to the Paris attack.
A 51-year-old Montenegrin detained in Germany after his car was found to be laden with weaponry and explosives is being linked to the Paris plot. The man was arrested in Bavaria near the Austrian border on November 5, according to Bavarian public radio.
A pistol was found under the engine hood of his Volkswagen Golf, prompting an alert, according to the radio’s veteran and reputable crime reporter citing regional police sources.
The Bavarian government confirmed the report, stating that the interior ministry was “intensively investigating together with the French authorities whether there is a connection with the events in Paris.”
Joachim Herrmann, the Bavarian interior minister, said: “Someone transporting several kalashnikovs, hand grenades, and explosives could be from the serious crime sector.
“But there are reasons to suspect that this is about terrorist intentions, or someone supplying weapons to terrorists.”
Examination of the suspect’s mobile phone and of the car’s GPS system indicated he was en route to Paris, German media reports said.
Police experts impounded the vehicle and took it apart - to reveal a sophisticated operation with automatic weapons, 200 grammes of TNT, hand grenades, and ammunition carefully concealed in the car’s bodywork, according to the reports.
Bavarian investigators immediately alerted the French authorities after the man was arrested, the report said.
