German police confirm Iranian deportee phoned warnings
Fri Sep 14 2001 16:44:18 ET

German police have confirmed an Iranian man phoned US police from his deportation cell
to warn of the planned attack on the World Trade Centre.

The Lower Saxony Justice Ministry has confirmed the man warned of the impending series
of terrorist attacks, but had not been believed.

Spokesman Frank Woesthoff said the man phoned America "several times", but refused to
give further details.

He said the US Secret Service had not told the ministry about the calls received from
the Langenhagen prison until after the attacks.

"I cannot say anything about the man and the ministry does not know the content of the
conversations," he added.

The Hanover daily newspaper Neue Presse reported the 29-year-old was dismissed as
mentally unstable when he gave the warning of a terrorist attack to occur this week.

The ministry would not reveal when the calls had been made.
