[An Nahar] Three people were tossed in the calaboose in Copenhagen on Friday suspected of planning a "terrorist act", Danish intelligence agency PET said.
No details of the alleged planned attack were disclosed. The three were tossed in the calaboose at two addresses in greater Copenhagen. "Raids were also conducted in connection with the arrests at several addresses in the Copenhagen area," PET said. The trio was to appear before a Copenhagen court on Saturday for a custody hearing, police said. PET said it was collaborating with police on the case. Danish tabloid Ekstra Bladet reported meanwhile in its online edition that police had seized three cars in the Copenhagen suburb of Herlev in an action it said was linked to the terrorism case. "Police officers in bullet-proof vests have just seized three cars in Herlev and a large police operation is underway in Valby," a neighborhood outside the Danish capital, the paper said. Friday's arrests come as four other people are currently on trial in Denmark for "attempted terrorism" for allegedly plotting to massacre the staff of a Danish newspaper that first published controversial cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed in 2005. | |

#1 Remember back in the old days, when Scandinavia was a safe backwater full of beautiful women and equally beautiful furniture? There is a joke in there about wood, but I ain't touching it! It would appear that the shine on the Scandinavian dream is getting scuffed off by non-assimilated immigrants. |
