(AFP) Greek counter-terrorism authorities have arrested a 40-year-old Iraqi man on suspicion of belonging to the Islamic State group (IS), police said Thursday.
The man arrived in Greece from Syria, a police official told AFP, adding that he will appear before a prosecutor on Friday.
Initially arrested on December 7 on charges of facilitating the entry and exit of foreigners into and out of Greece, he was released conditionally, according to a statement by the Greek police.
He was re-arrested after an investigation by intelligence and counter-terrorism authorities uncovered video footage suggesting that he is a member of IS, the police official said.
