Police outside the Fussilet mosque, now banned in Berlin. A Berlin mosque attended by the young Tunisian who attacked a Christmas market in December has shut its doors and been banned, as police on Tuesday launched a major raid against the capital's Islamist scene. Berlin authorities have banned the Fussilet mosque, which Anis Amri used to attend. A motion to ban the mosque had been submitted on February 15th, and the prayer rooms were closed down by the mosque itself a week ago. Geisel said there would be further information about the raids and ban later at a mid-day press conference.
