      Most of the hitmen are usually 17 yo german nationals (from migrant background)

      Can you be a little be more specific about these backgrounds or is there no data on it available? Because migrant background with German pass could be anything from a foreigner that lived long enough in Germany to become naturalized to somebody born, raised and lived in Germany to partly foreign parents.
