Five people arrested on suspicion of preparation to commit a terrorist offence in Denmark

2010-12-29 |
Today five people were arrested on suspicion of preparation to commit a terrorist offence in Denmark. Four were arrested in Denmark and one was arrested in Sweden. Four of those arrested reside in Sweden, three of whom are Swedish citizens.
“A serious act of terrorism in Denmark has been prevented through effective cooperation between the Danish Security Service (PET) and the Swedish Security Service," says Anders Danielsson, Director General of the Swedish Security Service.

“We will continue this cooperation by assisting the Danish authorities in their investigation."

Those arrested who have links to Sweden are also the subject of an investigation into their suspected preparation to commit a terrorist offence also in Sweden. We cannot give any further information about the investigation at this time. The leader of the investigation is Tomas Lindstrand, Chief Prosecutor at the Public Prosecution Office for Security Cases.

Please refer to the Danish Security Service for details about the arrests in Denmark and about the Danish investigation.

The arrested people are not, to our knowledge, connected in any way to the attack in Stockholm on 11 December this year.

Currently there is no assessed change to the terrorist threat level against Sweden as a result of these arrests.
