Weapons Cache Found in Ex-RAF Terrorist's Apartment

Published: 2024-07-11

German investigators have uncovered a significant weapons cache in the Berlin apartment of Daniela Klette, a former member of the Red Army Faction (RAF) terrorist group.

The findings include a Polish assault rifle, a Czech submachine gun, and a realistic-looking rocket launcher replica.

Authorities believe Klette and her accomplices used these weapons and props in robberies, netting approximately 2.7 million euros.

Since 2015, prosecutors have been investigating Klette and two other ex-RAF members for attempted murder and robbery.

Klette was arrested in late February, while her associates remain at large.

Investigators have released photos of the seized items, hoping for public assistance in tracing their origins and usage.
