A Georgian wanted by INTERPOL for "terrorism" was detained upon entering the Republic of Moldova
Late last week, the security authorities at the Chisinau International Airport detained two people suspected of belonging to terrorist organizations. The information was later confirmed by the INTERPOL alert, informs the Border Police.
A 20-year-old Georgian citizen had an arrest warrant issued in his name by the US authorities for committing the crime of "terrorism". He arrived in the Republic of Moldova as a passenger on the "Istanbul-Chisinau" air route.
Together with another 19-year-old Georgian citizen, the two were detained immediately after getting off the plane. They were escorted for further checks.
During the additional control, the employees of the Border Police, together with the SIS officers, discovered documents confirming the training of the two in specialized military training centers, as well as multimedia materials with terrorist content.
The citizen wanted by INTERPOL was documented and was placed in the preventive detention cell of the Chisinau Police Department. The second Georgian citizen was declared an inadmissible person on the territory of the Republic of Moldova and was returned to Turkey.
