Far-right group using sports to ‘build militia’ raises concerns, experts warn – BBC.com

A far-right group has been accused of using sports as a means to “build militia”, experts have warned.

The group, which has not been named, is said to be recruiting members through sports events and using physical training as a way to prepare for potential violent actions.

According to experts, this tactic is not new and has been used by extremist groups in the past to radicalize individuals and train them for violent activities.

“Sports can be a powerful tool for bringing people together, but in the wrong hands, it can also be used to recruit and train individuals for dangerous purposes,” said one expert on extremism.

Authorities are said to be monitoring the activities of the far-right group closely and are taking measures to prevent any potential threats to public safety.

The group’s use of sports to build a militia has raised concerns among experts, who are urging vigilance and awareness of the tactics used by extremist groups to recruit members and incite violence.
