| South African twins accused of plot to bomb US embassy, Jewish sites | ||
| 2016-07-12 | ||
The four were allegedly planning to fly to Syria, where they were due to undergo training by a terror organization, police front man Hangwane Mulaudzi said. "The allegation is that after the training, they would come back to South Africa," Mulaudzi said, adding that security officials hoped there would be more arrests. Twin brothers Brandon-Lee Thulsie and Tony-Lee Thulsie were charged with conspiring to blow up the US Embassy in Pretoria and various Jewish targets. Mulaudzi said the twins were placed in durance vile Don't shoot, coppers! I'm comin' out! in Johannesburg on Saturday. A provisional charge sheet says the brothers may have links to 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 Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... bully boy group. Siblings Fatima Patel and Ibrahim Mohammed Patel appeared in a separate court Monday after a stun grenade and live ammunition were confiscated during a raid on their home outside Johannesburg on Saturday night, said Phindi Louw, a spokeswoman for the National Prosecuting Authority. All four of the accused are expected to have the chance to apply for bail next week. This was not the first time South Africa had arrested someone suspected of trying to leave to join the Islamic State group. Last year, a 15-year-old girl was arrested on a flight in Cape Town while on her way to join the group, the state security ministry said. It was the country’s first known detention linked to the murderous Moslem group.
According to court papers, in addition to plotting to attack the embassy and Jewish targets, the suspects were also accused of inciting others to "aid and abet them", according to the provisional charge sheet. Moslems account for only 1.5 percent of South Africa's 53 million people and the country has so far escaped the jihadist attacks staged in several countries on the continent. "We have got fairly verifiable evidence of South Africans going to the geographical Islamic State (in Syria)," Nick Piper of Signal Risk, a Cape Town-based security consultancy, told a press briefing recently. "There is radicalization happening within South Africa. There is a strong possibility that if an incident does happen, it will be a South African." | ||
