JTA: ROME – An Italian convert to Islam has been arrested for suspected links to terrorism, and was connected to a suspect who planned to bomb Milan's main synagogue.
The man, identified as 28-year-old Andrea Campione, who worked in a picture frame factory, was arrested in the Adriatic seacoast town of Pesaro on Monday, during an anti-terrorism crackdown in several cities.
Authorities said he was associated with Mohamed Jarmoune, a Moroccan man arrested last month on suspicion of plotting an attack on Milan’s main synagogue. » | JTA | Tuesday, April 24, 2012
