A group of neo-Nazis, who were arrested in September after allegedly planning an attack on the construction site of a new synagogue in Munich, will have to stand trial. Germany's Chief Federal Prosecuter Kay Nehm said on Friday that by spring members of the group will face charges of belonging to and supporting a terrorist organization. The group allegedly also considered attacks on Munich's central square, the Marienplatz. Of the accused, 11 are currently in detention while awaiting trial, according to Nehm. Four others have been conditionally released.
