Bern, 07.07.2025 — The Office of the Attorney General of Switzerland (OAG) filed an indictment against a Kosovar national suspected of having acted as leader (Emir) of the Swiss chapter of a Kosovar terrorist organisation, and of also having been a member of its executive committee in Kosovo. The suspect is accused of having carried out, primarily in the Geneva region, activities related to indoctrination, financing, and the recruitment of new members on behalf of the aforementioned terrorist organisation. These activities are believed to have been carried out with the support of a second suspect. Both suspects are also believed to have disseminated the ideology of the terrorist organisation ‘Islamic state’, including during their regular meetings, as well as independently in the case of the second suspect. Through these acts, the two individuals are suspected of having simultaneously promoted the organisation’s ideology and supported the terrorist group ‘Islamic state’.
