A 22 year old who pretended to be a refugee and a frightened victim, crossing the Evros river border turned out to be a member of the Islamist terrorist organization ISIS, according to thrakinea.gr.
The experience of border guards led to the capture of an Afghan ISIS fighter, who a few days ago crossed into Greece along with a group of refugees.
The 22-year-old, along with the group of refugees crossing the border, said he was from a war zone and that he was looking for a safe haven in Greece and Europe.
In a thorough investigation, he was found not only to lie, but that he was a member of an armed group in Afghanistan. Police search revealed photos of the alleged refugee with weapons on the battlefield.
