Poland detains neo-Nazi youth planning terrorist attack on mosque and school
In total, three teenagers have been detained in relation to online groups promoting neo-Nazism and violence.
Polish authorities have charged a 17-year-old man, Pawel G., linked to neo-Nazi groups, with alleged plans to attack a school and a mosque. The arrest came after the detention of two 16-year-old associates he had been in contact with online. The Polish Internal Security Agency stated that Pawel G. participated in discussions regarding past terrorist attacks and their perpetrators, analyzing methods used by terrorists and viewing the perpetrators as sources of inspiration.
Justice Minister Waldemar Zurek emphasized that Poland will not show leniency towards fascism, hatred, or the planning of violent attacks. Pawel G. faces up to 15 years in prison, while the two 16-year-olds are in juvenile detention centers.
