The suspicions concern preparation for terrorist crimes, serious participation in terrorist organization, preparation for murder and preparation for serious crime on the Flammable and Explosive Goods Act.
The suspect was arrested in the Stockholm area on Tuesday, February 11. In connection with the arrest, Säpo announced that the case concerns violent Islamist extremism.
According to documents, the crime scene is “, among others, in Stockholm City”.
“We have been working on this matter for a long time and then it was simply considered that an effort was made here and now and then we made that effort,” Säpo’s press spokesman Karl Melin told TT in connection with the arrest.
He then did not want to provide any information about when the crimes should have been committed or planned to be committed.
