Italy Moves Against Islamozoids
On the heels of today’s Islamic threats to destroy Rome, Italian police have rounded up more than 100 suspected Islamic extremists.
ROME, Italy (Reuters) - Italian police detained more than 100 people suspected of having links to Muslim militants in coordinated raids across the country Friday, an interior ministry spokesman said.
Working with the secret service, police detained 106 people, most of them Moroccan immigrants. Fifteen of those held were to be deported because their papers were not in order, the spokesman said.
“This was a preventative operation, scrupulously conducted and based on accurate information,” Italian news agency Ansa quoted Interior Minister Giuseppe Pisanu as saying.
