Italian security police on Tuesday
arrested a 29-year-old Macedonian national, Agim Miftarov, on
suspicion of terror offences.
They said he had been training to carry out "imminent"
terrorist action.
"The danger was imminent and concrete", said a preliminary
investigations judge.
A search of his home turned up drones, military clothing and
a cellphone containing jihadi propaganda, and searches on
self-training methods, as well as the use of armed commercial
drones and the making of DIY taser guns.
Miftarov lived like "an ascetic" and had formed a terror of
police, judicial sources said.
He worked as a lumberjack and lived in an apartment at Tolfa
near Viterbo, they said.
Miftarov had no social life and was so afraid of police
checks that he did not got to the ER when he hurt himself with
an axe.
His computer showed more than 4,000 contacts with the
jihadist world.
