A German court has sentenced a former soldier to five-and-a-half years in prison for plotting a far-right attack on senior politicians while posing as a Syrian refugee.
“The accused is guilty of planning a serious act of violence endangering the state,” presiding judge Christoph Koller said on Friday.

Defendant Franco Albrecht, a 33-year-old father of three, had been in the dock before the regional superior court in the western city of Frankfurt since May 2021.
