Four people were arrested on suspicion of financial support for the terrorist group in Neumünster.
“I can confirm four warrants of arrest of the Supreme Regional Court for supporting the IS,” Hamburg’s prosecutor Jan Frombach told the German news agency on Wednesday.
Earlier, Kieler Nachrichten reported that four individuals supported the “Islamic State” with payments.
A woman from Schleswig-Holstein (Schleswig-Holstein), who emigrated to Syria and joined the ISIS received money in the five-digit range.
According to Frombach, the detainees are accused of “public support for a foreign terrorist organization.” They are in custody. Before the arrest, three apartments were searched, two in Neumünster, one in Hamburg.
Earlier it was reported that hundreds of Islamist criminals entered Germany as refugees. Some of them have already received official status. Of the 1,560 people who are classified by criminal police as false witnesses or extremists, 362 have applied for asylum.
