a man on charges of terrorism. The suspect has been meeting jihadists from the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(IS/ISIS) in Syria, according to the Bosnian authorities.

Kenan Krso was suspected of "several activities linked with terrorism".

"The suspect stayed for a brief period in Syria," front man for the public prosecutor's office Boris Grubesic said.

Grubesic told news hounds in Sarajevo that the suspect has met snuffies of the Islamic State, adding that Krso remained in contact with the radical group even after his return to Bosnia.

It's not the first time that Krso faces charges of terrorism. The 39-year-old suspect was already arrested in February "while walking in downtown Sarajevo dressed in a T-shirt with the Islamic State insignia".

According to reports, Bosnia passed a law last year, imposing sentences of up to 20 years in jail for convicted jihadists and their recruiters.

More than 200 Bosnians have reportedly joined the ranks of radical groups in Syria and Iraq in the past two years.
