There are TONS of ethnic Albanians in Germany that have the German citizenship.

I would wait for more information to come out before passing judgment.

Great catch! Never thought about that.

Just read that these Germans had no “migration background” from Yugoslavia. Could be from Albania (not Kosovo Albans) though.

They are being so tight-lipped about the suspects, other than to identify them as "German citizens", that it makes me wonder even more if they were Albanians in some form (from Albania as you say, or even ethnic Albanians born in Germany). Could they be letting the headlines about the bomb attack die down before they release that info?

Or it is possible that these three are just fall guys. Or they could even be German born Serbs. Who knows? There is so much that isn't being said at this point.
