German authorities said they thwarted a coup attempt and detained a Russian citizen associated with it

The German authorities have detained members of the group, which is suspected of attempting to organize a coup d'état. According to the German newspaper Die Zeit, this is one of the largest terrorism cases in Germany in many years.

On the morning of December 7, 3,000 police officers searched more than 130 houses and apartments throughout Germany. In total, 52 people are suspects in the case, 25 of them were detained. The website of the German prosecutor's office indicates that 22 of them are likely to be direct participants in the terrorist cell, and three are its supporters. Among those detained are supporters of the right-wing ideology and the conspiracy movement QAnon, former military men, as well as members of the nationalist Reichsburger movement. They do not recognize the legitimacy of the existence of the FRG and consider themselves citizens of the German Reich.

The German authorities got on the trail of the group in April of this year, when during a search they found firearms, ammunition and grenades from the former German military Peter V.. The German authorities began to collect information about his acquaintances and found out that they recruited people from among the former and still active police and military. Among the suspects is 71-year-old Prince Heinrich XIII from the German noble family of Reuss. According to his family, the prince is a conspiracy theorist. The investigation believes that Henry XIII and the former commander of the special forces of the Bundeswehr Rüdiger von P. led the group.

Another detainee is Russian citizen Vitalia B. In June, she visited the Russian consulate in Leipzig, and in July Henry XIII visited the same place. The investigation suggests that they tried to contact the Russian authorities and invite them to become partners. Investigators also claim that the group was divided into a political wing, called the "Council", and a military wing, which was supposed to be responsible for the armed uprising. All those arrested will appear before the court on December 7 and 8.
