Germany bans Muslim group citing ‘extremism’, ties to Iran and Hezbollah

Germany has outlawed a Muslim religious organization it accuses of propagating "extremism” and supporting Iran and Hezbollah, reported from Al Jazeera.

The Federal Ministry of the Interior and Community announced the ban on the Islamic Center Hamburg (IZH) and its national affiliates on Wednesday, calling its mission "anti-constitutional”.

"Today, we banned [IZH], which promotes an Islamist-extremist, totalitarian ideology in Germany,” Interior Minister Nancy Faeser said in a statement.

The ban comes after German authorities raided 55 properties linked to the group last November, during which police seized material that "undoubtedly” showed the group was operating in a "highly conspiratorial manner”, and trying to conceal its political aims.
