德國以恐怖指控逮捕伊斯蘭極端分子大綱

Germany has arrested one of its most prominent Islamic extremists on charges he supported a foreign terrorist group.

German prosecutors announced Tuesday that they have arrested 35-year-old Salafist Sven Lau on four counts of aiding the Syria-based group known as Jaish al-Muhajireen wal-Ansar, or JAMWA. The group has been linked to Islamic State.

Lau is suspected of recruiting fighters for the group as well as providing financial and material support.

Lau, a convert to Islam, gained fame last year when he organized a force of so-called "Sharia police" in the German city of Wuppertal. The men wore orange jackets marked "Sharia Police" and patrolled the streets trying to enforce strict adherence to Islamic law, demanding that nightclub patrons stop drinking, gambling, and listening to music.

A Wuppertal court last Thursday decided not to prosecute the men. The ruling has sparked nationwide controversy.德國以支持國外恐怖組織的指控逮捕了該國最知名的伊斯蘭極端主義分子之一。

德國檢察官星期二宣佈，他們以協助在敘利亞的“聖戰組織移民和支持者武裝”等四項罪名，逮捕了35歲的薩拉非斯特·史文·勞。該組織和伊斯蘭國恐怖組織有牽連。

史文·勞涉嫌爲該組織招募戰士以及提供財政和物質支持。

皈依伊斯蘭教的史文·勞因爲去年在德國伍珀塔爾市組織了一個名叫“伊斯蘭法警察”的隊伍而出名。該組織成員身穿印有“伊斯蘭法警察”的橘色馬甲在街上巡邏，試圖嚴格實施伊斯蘭法，並要求光顧夜總會的人停止酗酒、賭博和聽音樂。

伍珀塔爾市法庭上週四決定不起訴這些人。這一裁決在德國全國引發爭議。
