Police in Berlin have arrested two men as part of a hunt for two members of the Red Army Faction, previously known as the far-left militant Baader-Meinhof gang, who have been on the run for more than 30 years.

Special armed police units launched raids in the Markgrafendamm area at 7.30am on Sunday in a renewed search for Ernst-Volker Staub, 69, and Burkhard Garweg, 55.
