Swede among 'terror' suspects arrested in the Netherlands

four men including a Swedish citizen suspected of being involved in terror-related activities, prosecutors said on Tuesday.
"Rotterdam police detained four men early on Sunday evening on suspicion of being involved in terrorism," the public prosecution's office said in a statement.
One of the men, aged 29, arrived on a flight from Stockholm earlier on Sunday while the other three aged 21, 23 and 30 come from the cities of Vlaardingen, Delft and Gouda in southwest Netherlands.
Dutch police raided three homes in the three cities and seized data but found no weapons or explosives, the statement said.
Although "there is no concrete information to indicate a terror attack, police and the public prosecution's office are not taking any chances," prosecutors said without giving further information.
The suspects remain in jug pending a court appearance.
A Dutch citizen was sentenced to four years in November for preparing a terror attack following his arrest in Rotterdam last year, when police discovered an assault rifle and a large amount of fireworks.
In another scare, Dutch military police shot and maimed a man armed with a knife at Amsterdam's Schiphol airport earlier this month, but authorities said the incident was not terror-related.
The Netherlands has so far been spared from the slew of terror attacks to have rocked its closest European neighbours in recent years.
| They haven’t had a major attack by a well-rehearsed team of jihadis armed with bombs and guns, nor a shopping street terrorized by a lone wolf knifing everyone in sight or driving a truck through the crowd. But given that Pim Fortuyn was assassinated in 2002 for advocating closing the borders of the Netherlands to Muslim colonists, Theo van Gogh was assassinated in 2004 for producing Ayaan Hirsi Ali’s Submission, and Ms Ali and Geert Wilders will have to live the rest of their lives with armed guards against a similar fate, it’s a bit simplistic of the Dutch to claim they do not have a jihadi problem. |
