Germany on April 20 deported to his native Serbia a man whose killing of a young Turkish woman sparked nationwide outrage.

Student Tuğçe Albayrak was hailed as a heroine after she intervened to protect two 14-year-old girls in an altercation in a fast-food restaurant in November 2014.

A Serbian national currently serving a jail term for fatally beating a 23-year-old Turkish woman who attempted to intervene in street harassment in Germany will be deported to Serbia once his prison term ends in November 2017, German daily Bild has reported. 

An 18-year-old defendant apologised April 24 for the death of a young German-Turkish woman who became a national symbol of courage for giving her life trying to protect two teenage girls.
