Berlin - Five men and two women appeared before a Berlin court on Monday, accused of running an internet radio station that propagated hatred against punks, Jews, foreigners and communists, justice officials said.
The accused, ranging from 20 to 36 years old, were charged with incitement to hatred and running a criminal organisation. In March a police raid on their premises seized extensive material connected to the German neo-Nazi organisations.
The radio station, founded in 2006, had according to prosecutors broadcast hate slogans against minorities and denied the Holocaust. The group is also thought to have accessed material on the internet that described how to build a bomb.
A 31-year-old mother of two who had previously been connected to the radio-station's founders, was also among the accused. All of the defendants have admitted to the charges.
