En svensk och en dansk medborgare har gripits i Turkiet, anklagade för att ha planerat terrordåd i Europa, rapporterar nyhetsbyrån Anatolia och andra turkiska medier.

According to the Daily Sabah newspaper, the police detained Danish-Lebanese national Abdullah Halabi and Swedish-Iraqi citizen Mohammed Tefik Saleh on Friday.

Turkish police arrested two suspected Daesh terrorists from Denmark and Sweden, who were planning to go to Europe to carry out attacks, reports said on Saturday.

According to reports, teams from Adana Police carried out counter-terror operations and detained Abdullah El Halabi who is a Danish-Lebanese national, and Tefik Saleh, who is a Swedish-Iraqi.

They were transferred to a court on Friday, and were arrested.

The two suspects, who reportedly entered Turkey with fake identities said in their testimony that they were planning to go to Europe afterwards.

Although they claimed that they crossed the border to Syria to distribute aid in 2014, police found photos showing Halabi carrying weapons, and fighting with other Daesh terrorists.

Reports also said that Saleh's wife, Fatime El Rudeyni, who changed her mind about crossing the border to Syria and went back to Sweden instead, had complained to Swedish police about her husband joining Daesh with her daughters.
