The young girl told the police that she got on the train, which was going to the train station Friedrichshagen, at about 02:.35 p.m.
The driver asked the girl to get off via loudspeakers, as he would not allow anyone wearing a headscarf, the police reported on Wednesday.

A spokeswoman for the Berlin public transportation services (BVG) told AFP that they were checking video data from all possible trains, which is expected to last until Thursday afternoon
