FRANKFURT (Reuters) - German police have seized computers and documents at a mosque in Frankfurt suspected of showing children films containing gruesome images of conflict, prosecutors said on Monday.
The prosecutors in the western German city said they searched the mosque on Sunday after a schoolteacher reported that a nine-year-old pupil described seeing violent footage during religious instruction at the mosque.
However, the Moroccan cultural association that runs a centre including the mosque denied it hosted any extremist activity. “We know the people who teach here. They aren’t radical,” the association’s deputy chairman Ahmed Ayaou said. …
The prosecutors said that a team of around 120 police found a videotape in which men called for holy war and pledged to sacrifice themselves. The authorities also seized 19 computers, papers, videos and CDs.
