Germany sees violent clashes as activists jailed for attacking neo-Nazis.

Far-left protesters clashed with police in Leipzig, Germany, over jail terms handed down to several people convicted of vigilante attacks against neo-Nazis. A court in Dresden convicted four left-wing activists, including a well-known student identified in German media as Lina E., of committing violent acts against neo-Nazis, sentencing them to jail for two to five years. Groups sympathetic to Lina E. have been protesting the verdict. The protests turned violent, and police arrested five people. The calls for protests came in the aftermath of Lina E. receiving a five-year jail term earlier in the week for her role in a series of attacks in Leipzig and other German cities.
