Dresden Court Rejects Terror Charges Against NSU Associate Susann E.

Susann E. will face trial for aiding in a bank robbery, but not for supporting the NSU's terrorist activities.

  • Susann E., a close associate of NSU member Beate Zschäpe, will not face charges for supporting a terrorist organization, as ruled by the Dresden court.
  • The court found insufficient evidence to prove that Susann E. was aware of the NSU's racially motivated murders, despite her close ties to the group.
  • Susann E. is accused of providing logistical support, such as lending her health insurance card to Zschäpe and aiding in the rental of a vehicle used in a robbery.
  • The case will proceed at the Zwickau court, focusing on Susann E.'s alleged assistance in a 2011 bank robbery linked to the NSU.
  • The decision is not final, and the federal prosecutor's office has the option to appeal within a week.
