(ANSA) – ROME, JUN 7 – Italian police on Tuesday made 14 arrests in an anti-terror raid on a Pakistani cell operating in Italy and other European countries, judicial sources said.
The cell was allegedly linked to a wider network called the Gabar Group, itself linked to Zaheer Hassan Mahmoud, the 27-year-old Pakistani man who attacked the former offices of the satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo in Paris in September 2020, wounding two people with a cleaver.
Mahmoud went to Charlie Hebdo’s former offices to punish them for re-publishing cartoons of the prophet Mohamed for which 12 people were killed there in January 2015.
He did not know that the magazine had moved in the meantime.
