The Malaysian Police have arrested a Sri Lankan terrorist. He is reported to have been indirectly linked to the Al-Qaeda.
The Malaysian Bukit Aman Special Branch counter terrorism division helped to prevent a planned attack on foreign consulates in India with the arrest of four suspected terrorists including this Sri Lankan terrorist.
The Star newspaper reported that the Sri Lankan man was detained at a house in Kepong on Wednesday. The other three suspects were arrested in Chennai by Indian authorities based on information supplies by the counter terrorism division.
The Sri Lankan is on the wanted list for alleged terror activities in Sri Lanka and other countries. Police began tracking his movements since December last year monitoring his activities and contacts. The source said he had used a fake passport to enter Malaysia. The source also said the man had been planning various attacks on foreign soil but Malaysia was not a target.
