A 50-year-old Moroccan citizen was arrested earlier october for alleged terrorist activities in support of the terror group ISIS. The unidentified man was captured after his recruitment activities online were discovered by officials, who should be commended for their efforts at thwarting potential terror attacks against the citizens of Spain, RAIR Foundation reports.
According to a local report translated for RAIR Foundation USA, Agents of the Intelligence Service of the Civil Guard and others were able to “detect the activities this person was engaged in via the internet to attract youths and radicalize them.” EuroWeekly” reported that a second person was detained after he was found to have been “allegedly radicalized by the recruiter” but was released after providing a statement to authorities.
According to a newspaper in Spain, the ISIS supporter was very careful to stay under the radar, going online to find people he thought may be open to recruit “whom he later redirected to private messaging applications in order to deepen the radicalization processes.”
Earlier this year, yet another radicalized Moroccan citizen who was “linked to Isis for at least four years” was arrested after authorities noted a change in his behavior during the coronavirus lockdowns.
