Posted by Orange Blossom Special on Sun Dec 8 08:46:12 2024 Four men, including two Swedish brothers who converted to Islam, have been charged with preparing to commit acts of terror and involvement in a terrorist organization, according to an indictment submitted to Nacka District Court.The group is accused of acting on behalf of the Islamic State in Somalia, with plans allegedly targeting Jewish individuals as part of their intended “jihad.” the suspects were first arrested on March 7, 2024, during a coordinated raid by Sweden’s national task force on multiple locations in Tyresö, a suburb of Stockholm. One of the key locations was a basement mosque on Sikvägen in Bollmora, monitored by Sweden’s Security Service (Säpo) following suspicions of extremist activity. A covert operation, including surveillance via a spy camera installed in the mosque, revealed individuals handling suspicious weapons, which prompted the raid by the Swedish authorities. Elias, 25, and Rasmus, 23, grew up in Tyresö with Swedish-born parents but converted to radical Islam in their teenage years. According to the Samnytt news site, their mother described the time when Elias first became radicalized as “horrible and scary,” a sentiment echoed when Rasmus followed suit a few years later. The brothers became increasingly devout, frequenting a local basement mosque run by the Tyresö Islamic Cultural Association. Elias reportedly traveled to Morocco in 2023 and attempted to reach Somalia via Turkey in early 2024, raising red flags with Turkish authorities due to his one-way ticket and appearance. ------------ The same Turkey that claims that Aleppo is part of Turkey? Got it. |
