#9 Some details:

Investigations also found that one of the members of the group had links to Mohamed Achraf, the suspected mastermind of a plot to blow up the National Court in Madrid.

Achraf was arrested in Switzerland and then extradited to Spain in April last year.

According to the statement, justice officials moved in on a group carrying out thefts across the Zurich region in early 2005.

Subsequent investigations found that part of the profits from the thefts were going towards financing a terrorist organisation and that the arrested people had contacts with similar cells in France and Spain.
