Arrest of Red Army Faction Members in Germany
Two suspected members of the Red Army Faction, also known as the Baader–Meinhof Gang, were arrested in Germany after being on the run for decades. The ease with which one member lived in Berlin for 20 years raises questions about left-wing networks in the city. The group was responsible for numerous violent acts in Germany from 1970, including murders, injuries, robberies, hijackings, and arson attacks.
