A German court set to start a neo-Nazi murder trial next month said Friday it would relaunch its media accreditation process to guarantee four seats to journalists from Turkey, where most of the victims hailed from. The court will assign those spots using a lottery system and will also have quotas for other foreign media that want to cover what has been dubbed the country's trial of the decade.

German authorities say they are tightening security measures after discovering a neo-Nazi network inside the country's prisons.The network, which was used to try and organize financial help for far-right convicts and their relatives, was discovered in the state of Hesse after evidence was uncovered during a search of prison cells.Authorities say coded messages were sent between prisons by letter through the mail and also hidden in magazines.

A German pastor went on trial Thursday for his role in a demonstration against neo-Nazis that turned violent. The 59-year-old Protestant youth minister, Lothar Koenig, stands accused before the district court in Dresden of inciting attacks against police at an anti-skinhead rally in February 2011. Prosecutors say that calls to leftist counter-demonstrators for violence against police officers were heard from the loudspeaker van Koenig was driving at the rally, and that he used the vehicle to try to force a police car from a road.

Greek police have arrested two neo-Nazi sympathisers for illegal arms possession and a third person suspected of involvement in an attack that left three Pakistani migrants hospitalised, a police source said Friday. The arrests come as Greece is increasingly coming under pressure by human rights groups and its European neighbours to fight its growing neo-Nazi tendencies and widespread xenophobic violence.
