Araya, who had entered Germany from Switzerland days earlier, is also accused of trying to push a 78-year-old woman onto the tracks, though she managed to save herself.A psychiatric expert who examined Araya told the district court in Frankfurt on Thursday that the suspect was experiencing an episode of paranoid schizophrenia at the time and continues to suffer from a"pathological mental disorder".
"I am infinitely sorry, especially for the family," he said, admitting that the crime"must have happened according to all the information I have received", though he could not remember it. "Protect the citizens of our country at long last," the anti-migration party's parliamentary group leader Alice Weidel tweeted.
