‘What’s going on here is almost impossible to put into words’ – German boy beaten and strangled by Syrian classmate, video spread on Snapchat
A 13-year-old German boy identified as Bennet was hospitalized with a concussion, bruised ribs and other injuries after an alleged attack by a classmate outside a school in the eastern German town of Eilenburg, according to the boy’s mother.
The incident, which occurred Friedrich-Tschanter High School as Bennet went to retrieve his bicycle, was filmed by three other students and later circulated on WhatsApp and Snapchat, according to the Bild newspaper. The alleged attacker is Mohammed, )a Syrian classmate of similar age who had previously drawn attention at the school for violent acts.
In a statement Bennet’s mother said: “He baselessly accused my son of insulting his mother. Then he suddenly started beating him — on Bennet’s head, temples. He kicked him in the ribs, brought him to the ground, choked him by the neck. When Bennet got up, the other forced him onto his knees.”
Hospital records cited in the accounts documented a skull contusion, concussion, strangulation marks on the neck, and bruised ribs. Bennet spent a night in the hospital and received an IV. His mother has said he no longer leaves the family property out of fear, continues to experience pain and does not feel safe going to school alone.
School officials transferred the alleged attacker to a school in a neighboring town for one year, but the mother of Bennett stated that the boy is engaging in similar behavior at the new school.
The case has drawn attention on social media in Germany, including a widely shared post by radio host Julian Adrat.
“Mohammad from Syria tortures Bennet after school in the Saxon town of Eilenburg….They send the Syrian to a school in the neighboring town so he can continue tormenting Germans there. What’s going on here is almost impossible to put into words,” wrote Adrat.
Mohammad aus Syrien foltert Bennet nach der Schule im sächsischen Eilenburg. Er schlägt ihn zu Boden, tritt ihm in die Rippen, würgt ihn. Er lässt ihn sich vor ihm hinknien und um Gnade winseln. Bennet erleidet eine Gehirnerschütterung, geprellte Rippen, ihm wird eine Infusion gelegt, er verbringt eine Nacht im Krankenhaus. Seitdem verlässt er sein zu Hause nicht mehr. Den Syrer schicken sie auf eine Schule im Nachbarort, damit er dort weiter Deutsche quälen kann. Was hier abgeht, lässt sich kaum in Worte kleiden. Aufwachen!

One of the issues is the widespread violence against German youths in streets, schools, and clubs at the hands of migrants. Remix News has covered this issue in Germany and other European schools for years. Remix News had documented numerous cases of German students being bullied, assaulted and humiliated at the hands of migrant youths.

Muslim students beat him because he was German and gay. "They hated me because I am German, because I was already a homosexual boy back then, and because I did not submit to Sharia, to Islamic laws on German soil," said David Brough (@_david_brg). "During my school days, I was mistreated, beaten, ostracized, and insulted every day by Muslim classmates." It is a hell many German students have faced as schools become more "diverse." "The situation in our schools – what I call our Sharia schools, I was in a Sharia school in Wuppertal – has gotten even worse," said Brough. He then describes how, when he sought help, a guidance counselor claimed he must accept "diversity." "When I went to the guidance counselor with an SPD party membership card back then and told him about the homophobic assaults, the abuse, and running the gauntlet in PE class, he only said to me: ‘David, we are a school of diversity. You just have to endure it. You have to tolerate other cultural conditions. And in Islam, being gay is haram, a sin.’" This same attitude dominates within the German left. Even if the costs are unbearable, everything must be done in the name of diversity. "This country, Germany, and the politicians of this country, have not only sold out our cultural identity, our dignity, and our pride. The worst part is that they sold out our children, and we – the former schoolchildren, now young adults – are being robbed of our own culture." Follow: @RMXnews
In fact, Alternative for Germany (AfD) co-leader Alice Weidel addressed the issue in an interview this week.
“We have a lot of violence in schools, imposed, I’m very sorry to say, but we have to talk about it, by children of Muslim descent, beating up our children in school,” she stated.

It is not just the right in Germany calling attention to the issue.
Arguably Germany’s most famous currently serving mayor, Tübingen’s Boris Palmer, has attributed the success of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party among young voters to the consequences of mass migration, which have transformed the school system and other areas where young people gather. Palmer is notably associated with the left and was a former member of the Green Party.
“They experience what irregular migration means on a daily basis,” Palmer wrote on Facebook.
“Above all, the young men who have arrived alone are changing the living environment of young people. In the park, in the club, on the street, on the bus, at the train station, in the schoolyard,” he added.
The beating of a German teen in Frankfurt (Oder) also made national headlines earlier this week as well, which sparked a major demonstration against migrant violence in the Brandenburg city.
“The cowardly attack by ten migrants on a single German has had an effect. Around 1,000 people gathered this evening on Leipziger Platz in Frankfurt an der Oder to protest together with the AfD against migrant violence. We won’t tolerate it any longer! The perpetrators and their families need to be deported,” said AfD state lawmaker Lena Kotré at the demonstration.
The other major issue is that German law sets the age of criminal responsibility at 14, which could limit formal prosecution depending on the exact ages involved.
