New Video Surfaces in RAF Manhunt

Published: 2024-09-11

Authorities have released new video footage in the ongoing search for former RAF terrorists Burkhard Garweg and Ernst-Volker Staub.

The video, believed to show Garweg in 2020, was discovered among 17 terabytes of digital evidence following the arrest of their accomplice, Daniela Klette, in February.

Investigators hope the footage will lead to new tips from the public about Garweg's whereabouts, as he is suspected to still be in Germany with support from the leftist scene.

The trio, part of the third generation of the RAF, is linked to 13 robberies, causing over €2.7 million in damages.

The RAF, responsible for numerous attacks, declared its dissolution in 1998.
