Germany Far Right

  Parliamentarian Christian Stroebele of the Green Party talks to journalists in Berlin Tuesday Sept. 11, 2012. Germany's military intelligence agency says it knew of a murder suspect's far-right links years before he joined a neo-Nazi terror cell that allegedly killed 10 people. The revelation Tuesday in a parliamentary reply to opposition Greens lawmaker Christian Stroebele highlights how German security services compiled information about members of the National Socialist Underground long before their alleged seven-year murder spree that began in 2000. The Military Counterintelligence Service says it passed information on Uwe Mundlos to other security services in 1995 but then destroyed its own files after he completed obligatory German military service.
