Overview
- The federal prosecutor’s office filed charges of supporting a terrorist organization, preparatory acts aimed at assassination, and possession and production of violent depictions.
- Investigators say the suspect ordered a knife online, obtained operational instructions, and made targeted contacts with like‑minded individuals.
- Prosecutors also allege financial transactions benefiting ISIS and the distribution of propaganda videos on social media.
- Federal police flagged indications of a planned attack in June 2025, prompting an arrest followed by release from pre‑trial detention in early December.
- Authorities say the plan envisioned a random knife attack, and the suspect retains the presumption of innocence until a final judgment.
