Two terrorists in charge of financing and coordinating with fighters of the Libyan branch of ISIS were arrested on Friday and Saturday in Casablanca and Had Soualem in Morocco.
The arrest was made amid the ongoing investigations on the dismantling of a terror cell linked to ISIS’s Libyan branch.
The cell, which was operating in Marrakech, Essmara, Sidi Bennour and Had Soualem, intended to carry out terror attacks in Morocco mainly against security services, the interior ministry said in a statement.
Investigations revealed that some members of this cell, who were planning to join ISIS camps in Libya, had contacts with some active ISIS members in Libya in charge of logistical support with the aim of joining this terrorist organization before returning to Morocco to carry out terror attacks, the source pointed out.
The 10-member terror cell, linked to ISIS’s Libyan branch, was dismantled on March 24.
