Sweden extradites suspected al-Qaida man to Germany
2007-05-19
(Xinhua) -- Sweden has extradited a Moroccan man suspected of aiding al Qaida in Iraq and helping set up a terrorist organization in Sudan, Radio Sweden reported on Friday. Germany's Federal Prosecutor's Office was quoted as saying that the 24 year-old Moroccan, identified only as Redouane E. H., is now in investigative custody at a jail in Karlsruhe, Germany.

The man was arrested in Sweden in March after Germany issued an arrest warrant, accusing him of trying to set up an Islamist cell in Sudan, the Swedish Broadcaster said. The aim of the cell was to conduct a holy war against "crusaders" on the orders of al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden, it was reported. German prosecutors said that last month Sweden extradited another Moroccan man to Germany in connection with the same case.
