		</div><p>Prosecutors in western Germany have revealed they opened a fraud investigation earlier this year against Anis Amri, the main suspect in the Berlin Christmas market truck attack.</p>
<p>Officials suspected that he was simultaneously claiming benefits in two towns under different identities.</p>
<p>Detlef Nowotsch, a spokesman for prosecutors in Duisburg, said the investigation was opened in April but shelved in November because Amri&#8217;s whereabouts were unknown.</p>
<p>Amri was accused of receiving asylum-seeker benefits in both Emmerich and Oberhausen for a few days in late 2015.</p>
<p>He is believed to have driven the truck that ploughed into a Christmas market in the German capital on December 19, killing 12 people. His fingerprints and wallet were found in the truck.</p>
<p>The Tunisian arrived in Germany in July 2015. Authorities later put him on a list of potentially violent Islamic extremists.</p>
<p>Amri was killed in a shoot-out with Italian police in Milan on December 23.</p>
