Right-wing extremist terrorists targeted: Warrants for three suspected individuals from a terrorist group announced by GBA
In a significant development, three individuals - Devin K., Claudio S., and Justin W. - have appeared before the Investigating Judge at the Federal Court of Justice in May 2025. The trio, who have been in pre-trial detention since mid-February 2025, are accused of being members of a right-wing extremist terrorist organization, "Letzte Verteidigungswelle (L.V.W)", and involved in various criminal activities.
The L.V.W, established no later than in mid-April 2024, is suspected of having the objective to instigate a collapse of the democratic form of government in the Federal Republic of Germany by committing acts of violence. The criminal offences committed by the L.V.W members include incendiary and explosives attacks targeting asylum seekers' facilities and parties from the left political spectrum.
One of the most notable incidents attributed to the L.V.W members is an attempt to set ablaze an asylum seekers' facility in Senftenberg, which occurred in early January 2025. Claudio S. and Justin W. are suspected of smashing a window and throwing battery fireworks-style pyrotechnics inside, but no fire erupted.
In the same incident, Devin K., Claudio S., and Lenny M. had plotted an incendiary attack, but the arrests of Claudio S. and Devin K. prevented the attack from coming to fruition.
Devin K. is also suspected of preparing an offense with explosives and committing a serious violent offense endangering the state. He is also suspected of violating the Explosives Act.
Claudio S. and Justin W. are suspected of criminal damage, attempted particularly severe arson, and attempted murder. They are also suspected of using anti-constitutional symbols, such as spray-painting messages like "L.V.W", "Ausländer raus", "Deutschland den Deutschen", and "NS-Gebiet" on the exterior of facilities, and drawing swastikas and SS runes, saluting with the "Hitlergruß".
The arrest warrants issued by the Investigating Judge of the Federal Court of Justice substitute those of the local courts in Dresden and Gera. The city designated as the venue for the trial against the three accused individuals has not been mentioned in the provided search results.
The Federal Public Prosecutor's Office has seized jurisdiction over the proceedings, marking a significant step in the fight against right-wing extremist terrorism in Germany. The trial promises to shed light on the activities and intentions of the L.V.W and the extent of its influence in the country.
