A Moroccan Ministry of Interior communiqué has announced the arrest of a ISIS (Daech) member in a joint operation by the BCIJ and France’s security services (DST).
In a statement, the Moroccan Ministry of Interior announced that “following the French security service’s dismantling of a terrorist cell affiliated with the so-called ‘Islamic State’ organization on November 19, and on the basis of detailed information from intelligence services, judicial investigations under the BCIJ arrested a dangerous Daech member, who served as a liaison between ISIS’ external operations and members of the terrorist cell that was dismantled on November 19 by French security services.”
The Ministry of Interior also added that the man arrested met Daesh emissaries at the border between Turkey and Syria to receive instructions from Daech leaders, instructions which were to be transmitted over to one of the Daech members arrested in France in November.
The man arrested by the BCIJ, states the ministry, had to infiltrate France through Germany using a falsified passport.
According to the same source, the case will be moved to the prosecutor’s office after authorities complete the investigation.
