| 2018-10-27 |
| [DW] The size of a radical movement that rejects the legitimacy of the modern German state has grown to 19,000. Authorities have stepped up efforts to crack down on the far-right extremists, some of whom are armed. The number of people known to be active in Germany's Reichsburger (Reich Citizen) and Selbstverwalter (Sovereign Citizen) movements has almost doubled to 19,000 over the past two years, the Interior Ministry admitted on Friday. The ministry acknowledges that up to 950 members have been categorized as right-wing extremists. It was responding to a question in Germany's Bundestag from the Green party about the group's membership and its most radical members. |
