Isil bomb maker at large in Germany after he's caught saying 'the explosives are ready', according to report
Police in Germany are reportedly searching for an Islamic State bombmaker believed to be at large in the country.
Intelligence services have intercepted phone calls from the wanted man in which he speaks of explosives being ready, but have been unable to identify him, according to Bild newspaper. Authorities have refused to comment on the report. Details of the suspect have only emerged in the wake of a bomb attack on a Borussia Dortmund team bus last month. Although a Russian-born German citizen has since been arrested on suspicion of carrying out the attack to profit on selling shares in the club, police initially believed it was the work of an Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (Isil) terror cell, according to Bild. An Iraqi man named only as Abdul Baset A under German privacy laws was arrested in the immediate wake of the attack, but prosecutors said they had no evidence to link him with it. Instead he is being held on charges of serving as an Isil commander in Iraq before he came to Germany in 2014. But an even more important target was an unidentified man he had been intercerpted speaking with by phone. The newspaper claims surveillance teams overheard this man saying, “the explosives are ready” in a phone call shortly before the Borussia Dortmund bombing. “In the spring of 2013, there were clashes between al-Nusra and the Islamic State, in the course of which the accused joined Isil,” prosecutors said in a statement. read full article at source: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017...losives-ready/ |
