Speaking for the Belgium prosecutor’s office, front man Eric Van Der Sijpt said the group had received instructions online as to how to make bombs and kill people. "[The teenagers] were recruited by terrorist groups to prepare or commit terrorist acts," the front man said.

He was described as being "strongly radicalized" and "incited and instructed" by an "unidentified member of ISIS," according to Sherlocks that spoke to the German Magazine Focus. The boy reportedly planned to travel to Iraq and join ISIS last summer. He was not arrested because he is younger than the criminal age of responsibility in Germany.
