The suspects are said to be masked, organized and ready to use violence: The police are taking action against the right-wing extremist group "Deutsche Jugend voran". It is about an attack in Berlin.

The police have carried out a major raid against young suspected right-wing extremists in Berlin, Brandenburg and Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. This morning, the LKA Berlin searched the homes of five men and three women who are said to belong to the group "Deutsche Jugend voran", according to reports. An 18-year-old was arrested. The eight suspects, aged between 17 and 22, are accused by the public prosecutor's office of joint dangerous bodily harm.

They are said to have returned as a group from a demonstration against a CSD in Bautzen (Saxony) at Berlin's Ostkreuz train station on the evening of August 10 and then attacked two journalists aged 23 and 25 who were waiting there. Partly masked, they allegedly surrounded the two victims and repeatedly pushed, punched and kicked them. The 18-year-old, who was the subject of an arrest warrant, is accused of further acts of violence.
