One of the last surviving members of the Red Army Faction group that carried out murders and kidnappings in Germany from the 1970s went on trial on Tuesday after she hid from authorities for three decades.
Daniela Klette, who was arrested in Berlin in February 2024, is being tried for attempted murder, robbery and illegal possession of firearms, potentially facing life in prison, a spokesperson for the court in the northern city of Celle told Reuters.
Prosecutors in November brought charges against Klette, accusing her of going on a robbery spree with two accomplices to sustain themselves financially after the RAF group formally wound itself up in 1998.
