ROME (Reuters) – Italian police on Wednesday arrested a 64-year-old former German army officer connected to the far-right group suspected of preparing a violent overthrow of the state in Germany, a statement said.
Police said the man was arrested in a hotel in the central city of Perugia, where “material related to the subversive activity” of the organisation was found.
The statement said procedures to extradite the suspect have begun.
