Swedish Terror Suspect's "Tourism" Dodge » Publications » Family Security Matters

Swedish Terror Suspect's "Tourism" Dodge » Publications » Family Security Matters: "Munir Awad, one of five suspects arrested last week near Copenhagen in connection with an alleged terror plot against two Danish newspapers, has been arrested previously in Somalia and Pakistan for suspected jihadist activity. In those cases, he managed to talk his way out of trouble with the help of the Swedish government by claiming to be a peaceful 'tourist.'

Awad, a 29-year-old resident of Sweden who was born in Lebanon, was arrested in connection with an alleged terror plot against the Jyllands-Posten and Politiken, two newspapers that published cartoons in 2005 depicting the Prophet Mohammed. Charges include attempted terrorism and illegal weapons possession."
