Turks, Germans gather to shun racism, commemorate victims

  BERLIN (A.A) - October 21, 2011 - Hundreds of Turks and Germans gathered outside the German parliament, Bundestag, on Sunday, to condemn racism and to commemorate eight Turks and a Greek national who were killed by right-wing extremists in several attacks in the past ten years. The participants laid white roses and the sheets of papers with names of the victims on them. "We hope that these murders are not just the tip of the iceberg. Security authorities should investigate the murders thoroughly and shed a light on them in the shortest possible time to win back the trust of the immigrant residents," said Ozcan Mutlu, the Green Party's spokesman for education policy in the Berlin House of Representatives.     The investigation involves a newly-discovered neo-Nazi cell which is suspected of attacking and killing nearly ten immigrants over the last decade. The neo-Nazi cell, National Socialist Underground (NSU) was discovered when the German police captured a woman wanted for an armed robbery and two men involved in the robbery killed themselves.  German police also recovered a hit-list of 88 people -- including two German politicians -- to be targeted during a search into the homes of suspected members of the neo-Nazi gang.
