Summary
Taleb al-Abdulmohsen is a self-described member of the “liberal opposition” to Saudi Arabia. He has aligned himself with far-right movements such as Germany’s anti-immigration Alternative for Germany. He sought asylum in Germany in 2016, citing threats from Saudi Arabia, before working at a clinic.
The German police declined to comment on al-Abdulmohsen’s X account due to the ongoing investigation. The Salus clinic at the Bernburg psychiatric hospital confirmed in an email to NBC News that the suspect used to work for it as a specialist in psychiatry.
