A 30-year-old Moroccan man was arrested in Naples for terrorism charges, including affiliation with ISIS (Islamic State) and plans to target the Jewish community in the southern Italian city.
In addition to the arrest for “international terrorism of Islamist origin,” the suspect is being charged with “subversion of the democratic order.”
The operation—led by Digos and coordinated by the Naples Public Prosecutor’s Office Anti-Terrorism Working Group, with support from the Central Directorate for Preventive Police—uncovered his affiliation with ISIS and his online promotion of terrorist content.
Investigations have revealed plans for violent acts against the Jewish community in Naples, including intentions to acquire a knife.
Authorities also conducted searches on individuals linked to him.
