A Masonic lodge targeted.

Three members of a small neo-Nazi group, arrested Tuesday in eastern France on suspicion of a planned attack, were indicted Friday evening and placed in pre-trial detention, a judicial source said on Saturday.

These three suspects, two men aged 29 and 56 and a woman aged 53, were indicted by a Paris anti-terrorism judge for "criminal terrorist association", according to this source.

Three other people, two men and a woman who were also arrested on Tuesday and taken into custody, have for their part been released without prosecution at this stage.

Several anti-terrorism investigations linked to the ultra-right movement are underway in France.

A preliminary investigation opened in February

These arrests, carried out in the Doubs and the Bas-Rhin with the Raid, took place as part of a preliminary investigation by the national anti-terrorism prosecution, opened in February on this tiny ultra-right group called “Honor and Nation”.

According to a source close to the file, the suspects are suspected of having wanted to prepare a violent action, potentially against a Masonic lodge.

The project did not seem imminent, however.

They were arrested following exchanges between them, and in particular because they were researching possible explosives and had carried out locations.

According to a close source, some of these people were in contact with Rémy Daillet, a figure of the French conspiracy movement residing in Malaysia.

The latter is suspected of having contributed to the organization of the kidnapping in April of little Mia, found since.

In this investigation, an international arrest warrant was issued against this former MoDem executive in Haute-Garonne, who was excluded from the centrist party in 2010.
