Counter terrorism police are investigating whether sleepers from Islamic State have been reactivated to carry out attacks around Europe. The first was Britain's most wanted IS fugitive, Abdel-Majed Abdel Bary. This week police in Barcelona arrested an unnamed Moroccan who, according to The Mirror, was suspected of plotting to carry out a 'lone wolf' attack this weekend. On Friday Spain's Civil Guard said: 'The arrested man's radicalisation and affinity for Daesh (ISIS) dates back at least four years. 'During the current state of emergency that process of radicalisation culminated became highly noticeable and worrying.'
