Neo-Nazi woman planned terror attacks in Germany

Prosecutors charged 55 year-old extremist for planning attacks targeting politicians, mosques, pro-refugee NGOs

BERLIN (AA) - A 55 year-old German far-right extremist has been charged for planning terror attacks in the country, prosecutors announced on Wednesday.

Susanne G. has sent several threatening letters to mosques, planned arson attacks, sought information and material to build bombs, the Federal Prosecutor's Office in Karlsruhe said in a statement.

The neo-Nazi suspect also sent anonymous threatening letters to local politicians, Turkish-Muslim organizations, and pro-refugee NGOs in the southern city of Nuremberg, according to the prosecutors.

At least five of the letters contained bullets, and threatened the recipients with death.

German daily Suddeutsche Zeitung reported that Susanne G. was known to police as a right-wing extremist before her arrest, and she has been the follower of The Third Path movement.

She has been in custody since her arrest in September 2020.

Germany has witnessed growing racism and xenophobia in recent years, fueled by the propaganda of far-right, anti-Semitic, and anti-Muslim groups.

In 2019, right-wing extremists killed pro-refugee politician Walter Lubcke and attacked a synagogue in Halle, raising alarms over far-right terror in the country.

Last year, a far-right extremist attacked two cafes in Hanau, killing nine people with migration backgrounds.
