Two far-right suspects indicted in Germany's Dresden

Two far-right suspects were indicted by Germany's Federal Prosecutor's Court in Dresden on Thursday.

41-year-old Daniel A. and 29-year-old Marcel L. are allegedly high-ranking members of the extremist group "Oldschool Society"(OSS). They were charged with plotting a bomb attack and violating German weapons laws.

Prosecutors suspected the right-wing group's "president" Andreas H. had links to Germany's right-wing National Democratic Party of Germany(NPD).
