Closing arguments in neo-Nazi murder trial

-

– Prosecutor­s have started closing arguments in Germany’s biggest neo-Nazi murder trial after four years of evidence-gathering.

The main defendant, Beate Zschaepe, has been on trial since May 2013 for alleged involvemen­t in 10 murders as a member of a group calling itself the National Socialist Undergroun­d (NSU). The NSU’s two other core members died in an apparent murder-suicide in 2011.

The group allegedly killed eight Turks, a Greek and a policewoma­n between 2000 and 2007.

The Munich state court heard 815 witnesses and 42 experts. – AP
