4 Finnish men charged with plotting racially motivated attacks using 3D printed weapons
- Finnish prosecutors have filed charges against four men for plotting attacks against migrants, critical infrastructure, and perceived political opponents. The men are also suspected of manufacturing weapons using 3D printing for a racially-motivated armed conflict. Three of the men have been charged with terrorist crimes related to the manufacture and training to use firearms.
- The defendants embrace neo-Nazi ideology, specifically the concept of accelerationism, which promotes mass violence to cause societal collapse and is favored by white supremacists. The charges allege that the defendants prepared for an armed conflict between population groups, aiming to kill people and undermine society using homemade firearms.
- The men are accused of collecting contact information of ideological opponents and planning armed attacks on them. They also planned attacks on key civilian infrastructure. The defendants face charges of firearms possession and narcotics crimes unrelated to the terrorism plot. One of the defendants remains in police custody, and the defendants have pleaded not guilty to most charges.
