Fighters from the al-Qaida linked Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL)
Helsinki, Finland:
Norway's intelligence service says it is seeking a Norwegian-born Muslim believed to have joined rebel ISIL fighters in the al-Qaida breakaway group in Syria.
Spokesman Martin Bernsen says the agency wants to question Bastian Vasquez, who earlier was suspected of threatening the lives of the Norwegian prime minister and members of the royal family before he fled the country.
Bernsen told the AP on Tuesday that Vasquez was suspected of "joining and/or supporting" the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant group, classed as a terror organization in Norway.
He said officials had identified Vasquez as a man who appeared in a video clip apparently released by the Sunni-led group last weekend, which purported to show the blowing up of a police station in Syria.
