澳大利亚联邦警察在墨尔本Carlton区逮捕了一名65岁的索马里出生的澳大利亚公民,该男子被控为伊斯兰国集团传播极端宣传材料1。据指控,此人在2018年至2020年间向伊斯兰国宣誓效忠,并通过加密平台分发约10000份包含处死、酷刑等暴力极端内容的文件、信息、图像和音频1。
此人还被指控向他人传授策划和实施大规模袭击的方法1。联邦警察助理专员Paula Hudson表示,"此人分享的材料在其使用的加密信息平台上位列顶级宣传人员之列"1。澳大利亚边境部队首次在2020年11月于墨尔本机场搜查其行李时截获相关材料1。当局指控他违反恐怖组织成员、持有暴力极端主义材料、使用通信服务造成冒犯等罪名1。根据澳大利亚当局统计,自2012年以来,超过200名澳大利亚人加入了伊斯兰国1。
Australian Federal Police have arrested a 65-year-old retired resident of Melbourne on charges of spreading propaganda materials for the Islamic State group.1 The Somalia-born Australian citizen was taken into custody in Carlton, Melbourne, on Wednesday morning.1
The suspect is accused of pledging allegiance to IS between 2018 and 2020, and subsequently distributing approximately 10,000 files, messages, images, and audio recordings containing extreme content depicting executions and torture through encrypted platforms.1 He is also alleged to have taught others methods for planning and executing mass-scale attacks.1 Initial detection of the suspect's activities occurred in November 2020, when Australian Border Force officers searched his luggage at Melbourne Airport.1
According to Federal Police Assistant Commissioner Paula Hudson, "the material shared by this individual ranked among the top propagandists on the encrypted messaging platform he used."1 The man faces charges including membership in a terrorist organization, possession of violent extremist material, and using a communication service to cause offense.1 Australian authorities have noted that more than 200 Australians have joined Islamic State since 2012.1
