Danish police arrested a 19-year-old British national on Friday on suspicion of involvement in an arson attack on a building housing the Global Aktion organization, Danish news platform “DR” reported.
Denmark’s official reports refute allegations from the Polisario Front, who falsely linked the arson attack to a Moroccan national.
Police reports suggest that the arrested is a member of an organized crime gang. Prosecutors are currently conducting an investigation that will remain private until further notice, the same source added.
The suspect is charged with setting fire to the building using flammable liquids and endangering the residents of the building.
Police reports also noted that the suspect planted a hand grenade in the building that had not detonated.
