From Police grill Islamic leader suspected of incitement
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleAn alleged senior member of Israel’s Islamic Movement is interrogated by the Israel Police’s 433 serious crimes unit on suspicion of incitement to terrorism and violence, as well as supporting an illegal organization, according to police.
The movement’s northern branch was outlawed a year ago.
According to a police statement, “on various occasions, all of them after the movement was outlawed,” quotes attributed to the unnamed suspect were published on various media confirming his role in the group.
Police say some of the statements, as well as confirming the man’s role in the movement, constituted incitement.
