Police raid uncovers forged travel papers

ULM, Germany The German police stepped up their crackdown on Islamic extremism
Wednesday, detaining 22 people during raids on apartments and mosques allegedly
used by a network that provided financing and other support to terrorists.
.
About 700 police officers searched dozens of apartments and mosques in five
states, discovering militant Islamic propaganda and forged passports and visas,
the authorities said.
.
The raids capped an investigation of 20 people who allegedly raised money
through smuggling and producing false papers to "pursue their ideological
goals," said prosecutors in Munich, where the authorities coordinated the inquiry.
.
The suspects included German citizens and nationals of Egypt, Tunisia, Algeria,
Libya and Bulgaria, said Gerhard Zintl, an investigator for the Bavarian state
police. Their ages ranged from 17 to 46, and five of the suspects were women, he
said.
.
Eleven people were formally arrested while 11 others were placed in provisional
custody, suggesting the cases against them were not as strong. No charges were
filed.
.
Authorities stressed that the role of the suspects was believed to be purely
logistical. "We have no hints that any attacks were planned," the chief Munich
prosecutor, August Stern, said at a press conference.
.
Members of the network allegedly had links with terror groups including Ansar
al-Islam, an Al Qaeda-linked faction believed to use its European operations to
raise money and channel fighters to Iraq to battle the U.S.-led coalition.
.
"Certain individuals had contacts to Ansar al-Islam and were trained in their
camps," Zintl said without elaborating.
.
Officials said the "ideological center" of the network was in the
Baden-Württemberg city of Ulm and the neighboring Bavarian city of Neu Ulm. The
other raids were in Freiburg, Frankfurt, Düsseldorf and Bonn.
.
The suspects "equipped people with false documents, making possible illegal
residency in the country and outside, and supported other like-minded groups," a
statement from Munich prosecutors said. "In addition, they are accused of
spreading their beliefs in racial hatred and recruiting people for jihad" or
holy war.
.
Ulrich Heffner, a spokesman for the state police in Baden-Württemberg, said many
of the suspects were accused of using French, Belgian and Dutch travel documents
to finance terror activities.
.
"Others were illegally living in Germany. One of them used a total of eight
false identities to disguise his criminal activities," he said in a statement.
.
Three of the Sept. 11 hijackers lived in Germany. Since then, the German
authorities have been cracking down on Islamic extremists.
.
Most recently, the police on Dec. 3 arrested three Iraqis believed to be part of
Ansar al-Islam. They were accused of plotting to attack the Iraqi interim prime
minister, Ayad Allawi, during a visit to Berlin.
.
The group was founded in 2001 in northern Iraq and has claimed responsibility
for attacks on American troops and aid workers in Iraq.
.
Security officials say they believe that around 100 members of the group live in
Germany.
.
Terror suspect ends silence
.
An Algerian on trial for his role in an alleged plot to attack Jewish targets in
Germany broke nearly a year of silence in court on Wednesday and offered to
provide full testimony, The Associated Press reported from Düsseldorf.
.
Djamel Mustafa, 31, went on trial in February 2004 along with three other Arabs
accused of belonging to Al Tawhid, a radical Palestinian network. All were
arrested in April 2002.
.
Prosecutors say the group hoped to emulate Al Qaeda by attacking Berlin's Jewish
Museum or other targets and "kill scores of people" for Al Tawhid, believed to
be headed by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi - now a prominent terrorist in Iraq.
.
All four defendants had refused to testify, but on Wednesday Mustafa reversed
his stance.
.
"I have been living in a hole for 30 months and I am suffering because of it,"
he told the Düsseldorf state court. "Now I want to say what I know and set a
thing or two straight."
