NINE people charged with terrorism in connection with an alleged far-right plot to topple the German government went on trial today in one of three linked cases.

The trial in Stuttgart is the first to open in relation to the alleged conspiracy, which came to light in late 2022. 

It is focused on those defendants of the Reich Citizens group who allegedly were part of its so-called military arm, German news agency dpa reported.
