Suspected RAF terrorist Daniela Klette is said to have hoarded 1.2 kilos of gold in her Berlin apartment, according to a report. Weapons, ammunition, a bazooka and numerous mobile phones were also found, it is said.
The police also found 40,000 euros in cash and a pistol with two full magazines, the Spiegel reported on Friday. The now 65-year-old Klette is under investigation for involvement in attacks by the left-wing extremist terrorist organization Red Army Faction (RAF) and for robberies.
In hiding for more than 30 years
She was arrested in Berlin last week after more than thirty years in hiding. The money and the gun were hidden in a wooden cupboard with a false bottom in the one-room apartment, the Spiegel reported.
Ammunition bunkered in Tupperdose
A jammer, numerous mobile phones and identity cards, a balaclava and documents relating to the RAF were also found in two suitcases. Klette bore the name “Claudia Bernadi” on an Italian identity card. Inside the closet were an automatic rifle and live ammunition packed in Tupperware containers. Police also found a bazooka with a nuclear warhead.
Long-sought gun seized
The report said at least one weapon hidden in the apartment came from an RAF raid on a weapons depot in Maxdorf, Rhineland-Palatinate in 1984. Investigators had been looking for the gun for 40 years, the magazine reported.
Klette is in custody in Lower Saxony. The Public Prosecution Service of Verden accuses her and her alleged accomplices Ernst-Volker Staub and Burkhard Garweg of armed robberies that they allegedly committed between 1999 and 2016 to finance their underground life.
An arrest warrant for Klette from the federal prosecutor’s office in Karlsruhe, which has been in existence for six years, was opened on Thursday. Accordingly, she is strongly suspected as an accomplice in two counts of attempted murder and the attempted and completed explosive explosion.
Participated in three RAF raids
These include a failed attack on a Deutsche Bank building in Eschborn, Hesse, in 1990, a gun attack on the US embassy in Bonn in 1991, and an explosive attack on a new prison building in Weiterstadt, Hesse, in 1993.
