4 convicted of forming German far-right terrorist group

None

Three men and a woman were sentenced to prison terms between three and five years Wednesday for forming a far-right terrorist group in Germany with a plan to bomb refugee homes as a tactic to scare migrants into leaving the country.

 

The Munich state court ruled that the four founded the so-called Oldschool Society in August 2014. The group grew to have about 30 members with plans to commit attacks on foreigners and refugee homes because of their racist, anti-Semitic and anti-Muslim beliefs, the court said.

 

Judge Reinhold Baier said in his verdict that the group wanted to drive refugees out of Germany even if it meant killing people to do so, the German news agency dpa reported.
