Video transcript:
00:00 | They immediately understood that something was wrong with him, that he was too aggressive. | |
00:05 | The police officers who were doing a routine check at the Cadorna station | |
00:09 | of the Milan subway realized that a 37-year-old Algerian man had something to hide, | |
00:14 | after they asked him to show his documents. | |
00:17 | But they could never imagine that they would be faced with a person wanted for terrorism. | |
00:20 | The Algerian began to scream “Allahu Akhbar” repeatedly, putting his hands in his backpack, | |
00:26 | as if looking for something. That something was a 12-cm. blade. | |
00:31 | Arrested in the last few days by the police of Milan, he was the subject | |
00:34 | of an international arrest warrant for participation in a terrorist association. | |
00:38 | The 37-year-old was a fugitive from the Algerian authorities because, apparently, | |
00:42 | since 2015 he has belonged to the Islamic State’s militias and has been deployed | |
00:47 | on the Syrian-Iraqi front. A very dangerous subject, close to ISIS. | |
00:51 | Now the Algerian man has been taken to the San Vittore prison in Milan | |
00:55 | in view of the imminent transfer to his homeland. The Minister of Justice has already endorsed | |
00:59 | the extradition procedure. |
