Tugce Albayrak: Germany pays tribute to student killed for helping harassed girls

Thousands of people have joined silent vigils across Germany to pay tribute to a student who was beaten to death after stopping a group of men harassing two girls.

Tugce Albayrak, 22, intervened when she heard the girls screaming for help in a restaurant toilet in the city of Offenbach on 15 November.

But later, in the car park, she was brutally attacked with a bat by one of the men and left with critical head injuries, the Suddeutsche Zeitung reported.

Her parents made the decision to switch off her life support on Friday after doctors told them she would never regain consciousness and declared her brain dead. It was her 23rd birthday.

Tugce, who was of Turkish descent, is being hailed as a hero across Germany, with thousands of people joining candlelit vigils in her honour outside the restaurant where she confronted the attackers and around the country.

I am interested in science because it gives us answers to so many of the questions we have in this world. Whenever I told my mother that I wanted to be a scientist, she would tell me that it wouldn’t happen, that it wasn’t for me, and that people wouldn’t take me seriously.
