German Police Release New Photos and Details in Hunt for Ex-RAF Members Staub and Garweg

Investigators appeal to medical professionals and the public for assistance in locating fugitive former Red Army Faction members suspected of armed robberies.

  • The Lower Saxony State Criminal Police Office (LKA) has released two previously unseen photos of Ernst-Volker Staub from 2006 and a list of 12 alias names he has used.
  • Authorities suspect Staub and Burkhard Garweg, both ex-RAF members, of committing armed robberies from 1999 to 2016 to fund their lives in hiding.
  • Investigators believe the fugitives may have used private medical services and paid in cash due to a lack of health insurance, prompting a call for tips from healthcare workers.
  • Daniela Klette, a former accomplice arrested in early 2024, is currently on trial in Celle for her alleged involvement in the robberies.
  • The public has been warned not to approach Staub or Garweg, as they are considered armed and dangerous.
