Two arrested in Sapo – Aftonbladet

The Security Police have arrested a man suspected of having recruited to the terrorist organization IS.

The man in the 45-year-old has been arrested in Örebro.

Additional one person was arrested in the Stockholm area – suspected “of training on terrorism.”

– He is suspected of having passed on information about how to make explosives, said prosecutor Ronnie Jacobsson told Aftonbladet.

On Monday, the Security Service conducted an operation in Örebro where a man in the 45-year-old arrested.

He is suspected of violating the law for public provocation, recruitment and training relating to terrorist offenses , according to the prosecutor Ronnie Jacobsson.

Should interrogated

– He is suspected of having recruited individuals for terrorist organizations in conflict zones, says Ronnie Jacobsson, prosecutors National Unit for safety, to Aftonbladet.

The man will be questioned later Monday, according to the prosecutor.

– So I can not say much yet. He is reasonably suspected, says Ronnie Jacobsson.

“Security Police have a clear picture of the ongoing radicalization and recruitment in Örebro. The raid is part of the effort being made to the local recruitment. Security Police see that there are connections to the mosques in Örebro and Eskilstuna. Mosques have served as a rallying point, “writes Sapo in a press release.

” My father would never commit a crime “

The man’s daughter describes the arrest as follows in a post on Facebook:

“In an hour checking them throughout the house, take pictures and bring lots of things. I, family and anyone who knows my father knows that he would not commit a crime”.

She is also critical of how the arrest went to:

“They take no account of my mother has veil in itself, or that there are children who sleep in the home. They refuse to say what they have evidence, or what it is for the crime. Nor are they saying that they are from the security police, but they do as they please and ignore altogether us other family members. “

The man’s lawyer, Andreas Hahn, says this Aftonbladet:

– Right now I have no comment whatsoever on this matter. It is because I do not currently have any power to speak to the media. There might be a change on that later.

Security Service refutes allegations of Mannesmann family.

– The sweep, we identified ourselves as police officers from the Security Service. We identify ourselves always as police officers when we do a raid, arrest or detention, says Sirpa Franzén, Head of the Security Service.

An arrest

In their press release points out Säpo religious congregations not been identified, but it is individuals’ criminal activity behind recruitment.

Later on Monday updated SAPO information that one more person has been arrested on suspicion “of training on terrorism.”

Arrests do not have to do with each, according to the prosecutor Ronnie Jacobsson.

He suspected, among other things, for having conveyed information about how to manufacture explosives.

– More than I can not to say, he is barely heard, says Ronnie Jacobsson told Aftonbladet on Monday afternoon.

The suspect’s lawyer would not comment in Aftonbladet.
