Three men have been arrested in Bavaria on suspicion of links to the radical “Reichsbürger” network surrounding Heinrich XIII, Prince of Royce. According to the Bavarian Criminal Police Office, Bild, those detained are alleged members of a terrorist organization that, according to investigators, planned to violently overthrow the current state system and replace it with their own.

“As part of a large-scale investigation, new suspects have been identified who either provided support to the group or participated in preparatory activities,” investigators said.

Among other things, this involves weapons training that took place in April 2022 at a former Bundeswehr shooting range near Bayreuth.

Six people took part — six men and one woman aged between 40 and 61.

According to law enforcement officials, the purpose of the shooting could have been to prepare for an attack on the Bundestag building. This motive is officially mentioned in the case files.

Raids and searches took place this morning in three federal states: Bavaria, Saxony, and Thuringia. A total of eight searches were carried out — seven at the addresses of the accused and one at the address of a witness.
