3 IS suspects held in Germany
THREE young Syrian men arrested in Germany were Islamic State members brought into the country by the same network that smuggled militants into France to carry out deadly attacks last November, the German government said.
Federal prosecutors said police special forces arrested the three in the northern state of Schleswig-Holstein on suspicion of being sent by Islamic State “either to carry out a mission that they had been informed about or to wait for further instructions” for an attack.
Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere said they arrived in late 2015, probably with the help of the same network that funneled IS militants into Paris to carry out shootings and bombings that killed 130 people on November 13 last year.
“Everything points to the fact that the same smuggler organization behind the Paris attacks also brought the three men to Germany who were arrested,” de Maiziere said. “Indications are that their travel documents all came from the same workshop in that region.”
European governments are on high security alert after a series of militant strikes in France, Belgium and Germany, where three attacks this summer were carried out by asylum-seekers and two were claimed by Islamic State.
Around a million migrants arrived in Germany last year, and concern about their presence has grown since the attacks, raising pressure on Chancellor Angela Merkel to cap arrivals at 200,000 refugees per year.
More than 200 police were involved in the operation yesterday to arrest the three men, aged 17 to 26. ARD television said they were held after raids at refugee housing in towns north of Hamburg.
