A Palestinian refugee from Syria appeared before the Higher Regional Court of Celle, in Germany, on Monday over charges of pro-ISIS incitement on Facebook.
The German daily Süddeutsche Zeitung said the Celle’s Higher Court sued a 33-year-old refugee from Syria over charges of spreading terrorist propaganda in favor of ISIS.
According to the same source, the refugee incited youth in Germany and other European countries to join the terror group after he created a Facebook account under the Abu Omar label.
Police allegedly stumbled upon a gruesome picture on his mobile phone purporting to show beheadings.
The refugee initially denied the accusations. In case the charges are proved, the refugee is likely to be locked up for several years in jail.
The “stateless” refugee was born in a refugee camp near Damascus. He fled to Egypt and then to Italy, before he headed for Germany.
