A 24-year-old Belgian woman has been charged with terrorism offences on suspicion she helped people plotting an attack in Europe, prosecutors in Brussels said on Thursday.
Identified as Molly B, the woman was arrested during an overnight raid on a house in western Belgium which took place between Tuesday and yesterday, the federal prosecutor’s office said in a statement.
“The investigation shows indications of assistance being provided by the woman to persons with the intention to commit an attack in Europe,” it said.
She was charged with “participation in the activities of a terrorist organisation.” It said the investigation was completely independent of the probes into the November 2015 attacks in Paris and the March 2016 bombings in Brussels.
