Man who ‘threatened to massacre fellow students’ arrested on suspicion of terror offences

A Spanish student has been arrested after he allegedly ‘justified Isis attacks’ and threatened to ‘massacre’ his fellow students in class.

The 27-year-old computer studies student has also been accused of telling classmates he wanted to join Isis and watching the terror group’s propaganda videos during lectures.

Officers said he was held after returning to Spain after visiting Turkey.
Police also believe the student had fake social media profiles that he used to air extremist views.
