Germany to free unrepentant Red Army Faction terrorist
Christian Klar, in jail since 1982, will be freed on parole on January 3 after serving the minimum 26 years of his life sentence on nine counts of murder and 11 counts of attempted murder, the court decided.
Klar, who is now 56, is one of only two surviving members of the RAF — also known as the Baader-Meinhof Gang after two of its founders, the late Andreas Baader and Ulrike Meinhof — still to be in prison.
