Protest rally at suspected German NSA site

None

German police say several hundred people staged a protest at a suspected US surveillance facility near Frankfurt. Protesters held up fake cameras in what they described as a bid to "spy" on the heavily secured military complex allegedly housing a snooping facility of the National Security Agency.

 

One protester wore a helmet bearing the phrase "democracy is watching you." Police spokeswoman Andrea Loeb said some 450 protesters turned out for the rally Saturday at the US military's so-called Dagger Complex on the outskirts of Griesheim town. (AP)
