At the beginning of this year, he travelled to Egypt where he was arrested by the authorities of that country when he tried to travel to Sudan. That was when he was expelled to Spanish territory.
The pro-Daesh threats and propaganda that he shared on social networks among his numerous followers had multiplied in recent weeks. His messages had also become more radical in their nature.
In one of his last posts, he directly incited his followers to commit an attack against police officers, which subsequently led to his immediate arrest.
During his arrest, documentation, an electronic device, and a knife that he always carried with him were seized. He was made available to the courts today who decreed his entry into incommunicado prison, as reported by mallorcadiario.com.
