GERMAN socialist daily Junge Welt will be seeking leave to appeal against a judgement confirming its status as a named extremist organisation in domestic intelligence agency reports.
The Morning Star’s sister paper in Germany said at the weekend the Berlin administrative court’s judgement, delivered three months ago, had finally been published.
Managing director Dietmar Koschmieder warned that “the grounds for the judgement go far beyond anything the Office for the Protection of the Constitution has previously accused the newspaper of.”
