(ANSA-AP) - BERLIN, JULY 30- German authorities say they have
carried out raids on suspected members of a potentially violent
far-right group. Federal prosecutors said the apartments of six
suspects and four other people who aren't suspects were searched
on Tuesday.
The raids took place in four German states. The suspects are
alleged to have founded a group called "Storm Brigade" last year
as a sub-organization of an outfit called "Wolf Brigade."
Prosecutors said in a statement that the group's stated aim is
the "reinvigoration of a free fatherland" in accordance with a
"Teutonic moral law," and that they suspect it may be prepared
to use violence.
Prosecutors said the aim of Tuesday's raids was to gather
more evidence and determine whether the suspects had weapons.
