Police detain terror suspect
A 22-year-old female student charged with membership of the terrorist group Conspiracy of the Cells of Fire,which has claimed responsibility for several attacks this year, is to face an investigating magistrate today. The woman was arrested on Saturday with another two suspects who were later released. She has been detained in the past in connection to gas canister bombings, according to police who said her fingerprints had been found in the terror group’s hideout in Halandri, northern Athens. Three suspected members of the group have been held since September and arrest warrants have been issued for another six. In a related development, police detained a 24-year-old man arrested after around 50 hooded youths attacked riot police in Exarchia, central Athens, early Saturday. Another man arrested at the scene was released. Sources close to the 24-year-old said witnesses could prove that he had been a bystander.
