However, according to The Nordic Resistance Movements own account of the events, the victim was trying to push drugs on the perpetrators. He met the three perpetrators by an ATM. The victim talked to one of the perpetrators, before another one put him in a chokehold. The third perpetrator started punching the victim before they stabbed him eight times and began kicking him in the head. The victim died a few days later from the injuries sustained. The day before the attack, the three perpetrator had attended a meeting for one of the combat groups of the Swedish Resistance Movement [later known as the Nordic Resistance Movement], who was more violent at the time. On November 1, an article was published on the Nordic Resistance Movements pages about the incident, describing the perpetrator as an activist who \"is known for always standing up and helping and never giving up in confrontations\". Two of the perpetrators were arrested but the third withdrew a large amount of money and disappeared without a trace after a TV series titled Efterlyst [Wanted] showed CCTV images from the attack. A previous member of NRM has said that the organization donated money to the perpetrator after he fled. As of 2021, the third suspect is still at large and is on Interpols wanted list. "]

They were put on trial in March 2017 for the involvement in five bomb attacks against refugee centres, offices belonging to left-wing politicians and the car of a left-wing leader in the small town of Freital in 2015 and accussed of planning more attacks (See Case ID's 2015-10-19, 2015-11-1, 2015-9-19- The other two attacks were against material targets). The group was categorized as a terrorist organization during trial, and was charged with forming a terrorist organization. The members initially met during a demonstration against the Leonardo Hotel, which was designated as a temporary refugee home, sparking demonstrations and attacks in Freital. The leader of the group was known to participate in neo-nazi marches, worked as a bus driver in Freital and had created a group called FTL/360 on Facebook after two Moroccans were accused of molesting school children on bus route 360 to Dresden. The FB group gained 2,600 followers by November 2015.  \"The aim of this group was to carry out bomb attacks on asylum-seeker shelters, as well as on the apartments, offices and vehicles of those with differing political views,\" federal prosecutors said in a statement released in November 2016. \"In this way the accused wanted to create a climate of fear and repression.\""]

The perpetrator began to walk away, but when he heard the victim telling her aides to leave, he shot her twice more in the chest and head and stabbed her again. The attack occurred days before the EU-referendum and the perpetrator shouted 'This is for Britain, Britain will always come first' during the attack.  The perpetrator had a strained relationship to his mother becuase of his beliefs and his step-brother was mixed-race. The perpetrator studied killers (Jack the Ripper, the Boston Strangler), conspiracy theories (especially those questioning the Holocaust but also how Hollywood subliminally incites hatred of whites) and the assassination of liberal heroes such as Martin Luther King and John F Kennedy. He had links to British and American far-right political groups including National Front, the United States-based neo-Nazi organization National Vanguard and the English Defence League. In his home the police found Nazi memorabilia, far-right books, and information on the construction of bombs. A police official described the perpetrator as a 'loner in the truest sense of the word [...] who never held down a job, never had a girlfriend [and] never [had] any friends'. The evening before the attack, the perpetrator had visited a treatment centre, seeking help for his depression. He was told to return the next day for an appointment. After his arrest, a psychiatrist found no evidence that the perpetrators mental health was so impaired that he could not be held responsible for his conduct. The perpetrator was sentenced to life imprisonment and the judge remarked 'there is no doubt that the murder was done for the purpose of advancing a political, racial and ideological cause namely that of violent white supremacism and exclusive nationalism most associated with Nazism and its modern forms.'"]

A few days later, the police conducted a search and found a large quantity of commercial fireworks, explosive powder, fuses and a glass bottle studded with lead shot. A bomb disposal expert later told the court the material could have been turned into an explosive device capable of causing horrific injuries. In addition, the police found a dagger with the Nazi eagle, a Nazi flag, far-right literature and terrorist training manuals. He was \"quite proud\" to be part of the Scottish Defence League and travelled with others from the far right group to attend a white pride rally in Manchester in 2015. Police also discovered that the perpetrator had downloaded an international application form to become \"a loyal white knight of the Ku Klux Klan\". The perpetrator had begun abusing drugs at the age of 11 and had spent time in care homes and foster placements. The perpetrator was convicted of two charges under the Terrorism Act to 12 years imprisonment. "]

A few days earlier, a similar attack occurred in Chalon-sur-Saône (CaseID: 2017-9-15). On November 2, 2017, an unknown group called \"commando for the defense of the people and the French homeland\" (CDPP) claimed responsibility for the attacks and contacted the local press by emails or audio messages with a tampered voice. The supposed far-right group claimed to want to fight \"against the Islamization\" of France and explained that the attacks against \"the University of Burgundy, at the heart of one of the symbols of multiculturalism, mark the act birth of [our movement].”Nearly two months after the first attacks, the 'group' threatened to \"strike\" on the sidelines of the Ligue 1 match between Dijon and Troyes, scheduled for November 18. However, the attack did not occur and the perpetrator turned himself in to the police on January 28, 2018, claiming he acted alone, and that he did actually not hold any particular political convictions (right-wing or otherwise), citing instead a fascination with the judicial system and current affairs, as well as a general confusion with the current political climate. The perpetrator was described as bright, attending history college at the age of seventeen. \n"]

The plots were premature and several targets were envisaged, including places of worship (in particular mosques), anti-fascist activists, black people of North African origin, or politicians. Two named national politicians, representing the left and a spokesperson for the government were among the potential targets. The plots were apparently detected as a result of government monitoring of online activities. The group leader administered a Facebook page glorifying Anders Behring Breivik with more than 3000 members, praised other far-right terrors online, and wrote on his own network: “Rebeux, blacks, racailles, migrants, dealers, djihadistes. Toi aussi tu rêves de tous les tuer? Rejoins l'OAS!” In addition, he was regularly practicing shooting at a shooting range. According to Le Monde, his case first passed through the hands of the Directorate of Public Liberties and Legal Affairs (DLPAJ), at the Ministry of the Interior. On May 16, the DLPAJ sent this report to the national gendarmerie. The file was then entrusted, on June 8, to the terrorism investigation and prevention group of the Marseille research section and a preliminary investigation was opened locally. In October 2021, six members of the group were sentenced for forming a criminal terrorist association. The leader was sentenced to nine years in prison, whereas the second in command was sentenced to seven years. During the trial, the leader argued that they never had any concrete attack plans, but also admitted that he had founded an organization with terrorist aims, in particular “triggering remigration based on terror”, and while the operational planning was in “its initial phase”, it likely would have \"evolved\" had it not been stopped by the authorities. He also submitted a letter arguing that he had deradicalized in prison since his arrest, and that he no longer supports the actions hos is being sentenced for. The trial also exposed internal manuals, written by the leader, which are full of details, specifying the ranks of the organization ( “commander”, “mission manager”, “autonomous member” …). They were also posters ( \"Hunters of Arabs!\" ), recruitment methods inspired by the secret services, and tips for not being infiltrated. in trial, the leader admitted: “We knew we were going to do illegal things.
