Federal prosecutors called for nationwide police raids against suspected Isis members and supporters on Wednesday, from Bavaria to Berlin. Police searched apartments in connection with suspected Isis terror group supporters and members in Berlin, Bavaria, Saxony, and Saxony-Anhalt on Wednesday. Officials said there are three people in focus in particular, two of whom are suspected of being Isis members, while the other is suspected of supporting the terror group. Spiegel Online also reported that two of the suspects are being investigated for weapons violations. Interior Minister Thomas de Maizière did not want to give further details yet about the police raids, according to Spiegel, but said that the raids showed "that the security agencies have recently been determined to focus on the area of international terrorism".
