German far-right group on trial for ‘terror plot’

BERLIN – The trial of 11 suspected members of a far-right “terror” group has begun in the German city of Stuttgart.

The suspects, aged between 32 and 61, were arrested in February last year.

Prosecutors said the 11 men – all Germans – were members of Gruppe S (Group S), which planned attacks on migrants, Muslims and politicians, with the aim of sparking a civil war.

A twelfth man, a former police officer, is accused of offering material support to the group. He is also on trial.

One of the group’s member is still at large and is being tried in absentia.(BBC)
