Far-right group's detained members tell police they planned to target mosqes in Germany in Christchurch-style attacks
Officials say investigations into 12 men detained last week indicate the group planned"shocking" attacks similar to ones carried out in New Zealand mosques last year that left 51 people dead.
Members of a German far-right group arrested last week were believed to have been plotting "shocking" large-scale attacks on mosques similar to the ones carried out in New Zealand last year, a government spokesman said on Monday. "It's shocking what has been revealed here, that there are cells here that appear to have become radicalised in such a short space of time," interior ministry spokesman Bjoern Gruenewaelder told reporters at a Berlin press conference.
"Anyone practicing their religion in Germany within our legal order should be able to do so without being endangered or threatened".According to media reports, the group planned to use semi-automatic weapons to ape last March's attacks in Christchurch in New Zealand in which 51 people were killed at two mosques.
