(Swiss Info) Switzerland’s Office of the Attorney General (OAG) has filed an indictment with the Federal Criminal Court against two men accused of supporting and participating in the terror organisation “Islamic State” (IS).
According to the indictment, the principal accused, a Swiss-Italian dual citizen domiciled in Winterthur, located near Zurich, supported IS in Syria — having travelled there — and recruited several individuals for IS.
“To achieve his goal of recruiting others for IS, the Swiss-Italian dual citizen acted as a Salafist guiding figure in Switzerland and kept in contact with several convicted IS recruiters from Europe,” the OAG said in a statement on Friday.
