Protesters light fireworks during a far-right demonstration in Chemnitz, Germany
GERMAN police swooped last night to arrest six members of an alleged neonazi terrorist ring who sought to subvert the state and impose fascist rule.
The group, known as “Revolution Chemnitz,” sought to emulate fellow extremist group the National Socialist Underground (NSU), which murdered 10 people in a 2011 bomb attack.
Federal prosecutors said in a statement: “To this end, they intended to launch violent and armed attacks against foreigners and people who have different political views.”
