Prosecutors said 26-year-old Mustafa C., and 27-year-old Sebastian B., were arrested this morning in raids in the western state of North-Rhine Westphalia. Their last names weren’t given in accordance with local privacy laws.
The two Germans are accused of traveling to Syria through Turkey in March and August 2013 where they joined a group known as the Muhajireen Brigade. By the end of 2013, they were suspected of joining IS, undergoing training and providing logistical support during battles.
