Italian police detain minor suspected of supporting ISIS online
ROME (AA): Italian police have detained a minor accused of being part of a transnational group of youths supporting the ISIS group.
The police said they found evidence that he was ready to organize an arson attack in the area of Bergamo in northern Italy, where he lives.
They said the boy who has Italian nationality but foreign roots was part of a group of youngsters from other parts of Europe and the Americas, many of whom have been arrested in recent weeks.
Police started monitoring the Italian minor after he showed “signs of radicalization” on social media, where he posted videos of ISIS, they said.
They have also claimed that the child was in possession of books on making weapons as well as videos showing ISIS executions.
