Amsterdam - Dutch police detained a Somali national over the past weekend for alleged involvement in jihadist (holy war) activities in the United States, Rotterdam's public prosecutor spokesman said Tuesday. The 43-year-old man was arrested in an asylum-seeker's centre in Dronten in the northern Netherlands early Sunday at the request of US authorities who alleged that he was involved in jihadist activities. The spokesman also said a Rotterdam court, before which the man has meanwhile appeared, placed the Somali national in 60-day detention pending a possible extradition request by the US.
