POLICE RAID TWO MOSQUES SUSPECTED OF RECRUITING AND FINANCING MUSLIMS TO WAGE JIHAD IN SYRIA (AUSTRIA)

The raids were carried out this week as part of an ongoing terrorism investigation against ultraconservative Salafist Muslim groups in Graz, a prosecution spokesman was quoted as saying by the Austrian press agency APA.
