German officials expect more arrests linked to an alleged far-right plan to topple the government which saw 25 people rounded up on Wednesday, including a self-styled prince, a retired paratrooper and a judge.

The plot was allegedly hatched by people associated with the so-called Reich Citizens movement, which rejects Germany’s postwar constitution and the government’s legitimacy.
