Three men were held in separate raids in Berlin late on Tuesday which included
a mosque that Tunisian jihadist Anis Amri visited shortly before driving a heavy
goods lorry into a crowded Christmas market in December, killing 12 people.
One of the three detained was said to be in charge of the Fussilet mosque,
which has been described as a base for radical Muslims in Berlin.
Amri had spent four years in jail in Italy before travelling to Germany but
repeated attempts to send him back to Tunisia had failed because officials
there said he had no documents.
Police said the Tunisian man picked up on Wednesday was detained at his
home in Frankfurt. He had spent 10 years in Germany until 2013 and had
returned as an asylum seeker in August 2015.
Since his return he is suspected of setting up an IS support network.
Tunisian authorities have also linked him to a deadly March 2016 attack on
the town of Ben Guerdane, close to the Libyan border.
He was in detention in Frankfurt facing extradition for several weeks but
was released last November because Tunisian authorities had failed to
submit documents in time.
