German police conducted predawn raids against the country’s biggest neo-Nazi group, escalating efforts to stamp out a growing movement of potentially violent anti-immigrant extremists.
Police searched 30 premises across nine states tied to the HNG, a group with about 600 members that focuses on supporting neo-Nazi members during their imprisonment, Interior Ministry spokesman Markus Beyer said in an e-mailed response to questions. The group, founded in 1979, includes neo-Nazis as well as a “violent subculture of rightwing extremists.”
