suspicion of planning to carry out a bomb attack.

were involved in an operation together with state police, but referred to

federal prosecutors, who couldn’t immediately confirm the reports, are
responsible for investigating serious crimes including terrorism.

to use fireworks to build an explosive and had ordered a detonator from
Britain.
Their
surnames weren’t provided in line with German privacy rules.
