(NCA NewsWire) A sophisticated terror network funding violent extremists has allegedly been uncovered in southeast Queensland, with two men arrested by federal police.
The pair were taken into custody on Thursday following a co-ordinated operation in Queensland and Victoria, and charged with foreign incursion-related offences related to funding extremist fighters travelling to Syria, the Australian Federal Police said.
Gabriel Crazzi, 34, from Logan in Brisbane’s south, and Ahmed Luqman Talib, 31, from Melbourne, are alleged to be major figures in the terrorism organisation.
The group was allegedly responsible for financially supporting Ahmed Succarieh travelling to Syria and becoming Australia’s first suicide bomber.
