Germany bans Islamic group, Police raid mosques
, Tuesday, 15 November 2016 (13:13 IST)
Berlin: German police today launched dawn raids on mosques, apartments and offices in ten German states and the government banned a group it accused of trying to recruit fighters for Islamic State, the interior ministry said. A spokeswoman for the ministry described the DWR 'True Religion' organisation is a mobilising network for an Islamic State, though she said there was no indication it was planning attacks itself.

Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere believed the group breached Germany's constitution and incited hatred, she added. He was due to make a statement on the arrests and the ban later today. There was no immediate statement from the group. (UNI)
