| [IsraelTimes] Two Afghan men linked to the Islamic State group have been jailed in Germany for planning an attack on the Swedish parliament in retaliation for Quran burnings by protesters. The two suspects, identified as Ibrahim M. G. and Ramin N., allegedly tried but failed to buy guns for the plot. They were found guilty of plotting to “kill members of parliament… in response to the burning of Qurans in Sweden,” the higher regional court in Thuringia says in a statement. Ibrahim M. G., 30, was sentenced to five years and six months in jail, and Ramin N., 24, received a sentence of four years and two months. The defendants, who arrived in Germany in 2015 and 2016, respectively, were Islamic State sympathizers who “shared the IS worldview and endorsed [its] violent approach,” the court says. Courtesy of Skidmark, Breitbart adds: Before their arrest, both men lived in Gera in the eastern German state of Thuringia, were friends, and had become radicalized by online propaganda from the Islamic State group, dpa reported.The men were arrested in March on their way back from the Czech Republic, where they had tried unsuccessfully to obtain firearms for the attack. According to the court, they had been under surveillance for some time. |
