(AFP) Polish security services said Tuesday they had deported a Tajikistan citizen on suspicion of “terrorist activities” and links to the Islamic State group that claimed a deadly attack in Moscow last month.
The man, whose identity was not disclosed, was “a member of the terrorist organisation Islamic State,” the Polish security agency ABW said in a statement.
“He had been involved in terrorist activities for several years,” the agency said, adding that the man had been “active” in the Middle East.
He also “had links to the members of the Islamic State in Khorasan (IS-K),” the group that claimed the March 22 attack at a Moscow concert hall that saw more than 140 people killed.
