In Germany, right-wing activist organization Nordkreuz is suspected of having drawn up a list of left-wing figures and migrant and refugee rights militants, with the intent to kill them. According to the Guardian, the list includes mostly political leaders affiliated with the Social Democratic Party, the Greens, Die Linke and the Christian Democratic Union of German Chancellor Angela Merkel. The information would have been gathered by Nordkreuz due to an access to police databases. Weapons, lime and body bags have been discovered. These revelations were first made by the German corporate newsroom RedaktionsNetzwerk Deutschland (RDN) through sources within the German intelligence services. However, Nordkreuz denies assassinations schemes. This information was made public less than a month after the assassination of a pro-refugee German prefect, whose death created an outburst of hate messages in far-right German groups, who openly lauded and congratulated the heinous act on social networks. On June 2, Walter Lübcke was found dead on the terrace of his house, shot in the head. He had been a member of the Christian Democrat Union, a member of the Hessian Regional Parliament from 1999 to 2009 and prefect of Cassel since 2009. His assassination came after many death threats from the far-right, because of his support to welcoming migrants in the country and in particular his support for Chancellor Angela Merkel's policies in 2015. As for the Nordkreuz group, it has been under investigation since August 2017 for planning terrorist attacks in close connection with members of the police and the army.
