More than 180 terror suspects under investigation in Germany after Isis plot to attack Düsseldorf
A spokesperson for the justice ministry in Berlin said the federal prosecutor was conducting 120 investigations into more than 180 suspects and defendants “in connection with the Syrian civil war for their membership or support of a terrorist organisation”.
Three men have been arrested this week for allegedly plotting an attack in Düsseldorf after being deployed by Isis leaders in Syria.
A spokesperson for the German interior ministry said it was too early to make a “fundamental reassessment” about the seriousness of the threat but that the national security alert remained high.
Johannes Dimroth said there 499 potential Islamist extremists under observation in Germany but did not give further information on their nationalities.
