Berlin (VNA) - The Frankfurt Public Prosecutor’s Office has brought charges against driver Mohammad S. for negligent homicide and speeding in connection with a traffic accident that claimed the lives of Vietnamese twin brothers Duy Quang and Quang Minh, aged 23, in early July 2025.
Chief Prosecutor Dominik Mies said that Mohammad S., 24 years old, has been indicted for dangerous driving and reckless disregard for human life, resulting in particularly serious consequences. The indictment stated that in the early hours of July 6, 2025, after consuming intoxicating substances, the suspect drove at excessive speed in Frankfurt, causing a crash that killed Duy Quang and Quang Minh and left their friend Hoang Trung Hieu, 27, who was travelling with them, seriously injured.
After the accident, Mohammad S. did not stop but continued driving, dragging one of the victims for a considerable distance before removing the vehicle’s licence plates in an attempt to destroy evidence. He turned himself in several hours after the incident and has been held in pre-trial detention since July 15, 2025.
The case drew widespread shock due to the reckless act of driving under the influence, which took the lives of two students and left the surviving victim with permanent injuries.
Dr Kambiz Ghawami, President of the World University Service (WUS) Germany, welcomed the decision of the Frankfurt Public Prosecutor’s Office. He also expressed appreciation for the solidarity shown by the Vietnamese community in Germany. Through a large-scale fundraising campaign, more than 8,800 donors have contributed over 205,000 EUR (more than 242,000 USD) to cover medical treatment and rehabilitation costs for Hieu./.
