A MAN has been arrested for that very modern crime of inciting violence online using social media.
The 42-year-old was arrested in Malaga for publishing 66 comments threatening Muslim and Arab people.
The racial arsonist had more than 1,000 followers on Twitter, where he posted his inflammatory remarks, and published his vindictive psychology without restriction, so the poison seeped indiscriminately across the internet with the possibility of encouraging violent behaviour.
He was eventually apprehended by a specialised Guardia Civil unit which explores online and social network violence, bullying and extremism.
