BERLIN: A Romanian was arrested in Germany on Tuesday on suspicion of plotting to overthrow his country’s government and install a Nazi-inspired regime, prosecutors said.
The suspect, named only as Nichita P., is accused of “having attempted, as a ringleader, to establish a foreign terrorist organization,” the prosecutors said in a statement.
“From early 2023, Nichita P. sought to establish a right-wing extremist group that was to unleash a ‘war of terror’ in Romania and contribute to the downfall of the Romanian state and the creation of a new state modelled on National Socialism,” they said.
