Clashes have erupted between German police and protestors who were trying to prevent far-right extremists from staging a demonstration in the German capital.
According to police, some 2, 000 people staged a large counter-protest, trying to stop a small march by the far-right National Democratic Party, or NPD. The far-right demonstrators could only advance a couple of hundred meters before their path was blocked. However, the counter rally turned violent as the protesters threw stones, bottles and fireworks at authorities. Several policemen got injured.
A police spokesman said four NPD supporters and nine counter-demonstrators were arrested. According to Germany’s security services, the NPD party had a racist, xenophobic and anti-Semitic agenda.
