The Tunisian national is also accused of being a member of a foreign terrorist organization, according to the statement.
In 2017, Sief Allah H. tried to leave Germany for Syria via Turkey in order to fight for the Daesh while Yasmin H. paid for his hotel in Turkey and air tickets. The detainee failed to cross the Turkish-Syrian border twice and returned to Germany where he disseminated Daesh propaganda via messengers and on the Internet.
Sief Allah H. was detained in June, while Yasmin H. was caught in August.
