Berlin, Dhu-AlHijjah 22, 1436, Oct 6, 2015, SPA -- Chancellor Angela Merkel's office is to take charge of the German refugee crisis amid signs of deepening concerns in the electorate about the way her government is handling the surge in the numbers of asylum seekers arriving in the nation. Merkel's cabinet is expected to agree on Wednesday to her plan to hand over coordination of the government's response to the crisis to Peter Altmaier, who heads up the chancellor's office in Berlin, officials told dpa. -- SPA 19:56 LOCAL TIME 16:56 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
