Anis Amri, the Tunisian man
who is wanted over Monday's attack on a Berlin Christmas market
in which 12 people were killed, may have been radicalised in an
Italian jail, his brother reportedly said on Thursday.
"He might have been radicalized in prison in Italy after he
left Tunisia," Abdelkader Amri told Bild.
"If it's proven that he was involved, he will no longer be
part of our family".
AP spoke to another of Anis Amri's brothers, who called on
the suspect to turn himself over to police.
Amri, 24, reportedly arrived in Italy in 2011 and was
detained at Palermo's Ucciardone prison after he was arrested in
Catania for taking part in an arson attack and for issuing
threats and causing bodily harm and damages.
After serving a four-year term, he left Italy for Germany
instead of being deported back to his homeland because Tunisian
authorities did not recognize him as a national in time.
