Six people, members of a small ultra-right group, were arrested Tuesday in the Doubs and Alsace, more precisely in the Bas-Rhin, a judicial source said on Friday, confirming information from BFMTV.

They are suspected of a planned attack on a Masonic lodge in Moselle.

Three of them, two men and a woman aged 29 to 56, were presented this Friday to a Parisian examining magistrate with a view to possible indictment for "criminal terrorist association", according to the judicial source.

The other three have been released without prosecution at this point.
