Terror Indoctrination in Madrid: Two Women Arrested

Alcorcón Terror Indoctrination Case: Two Women Arrested On Monday, May 26, 2025, Spanish National Police arrested two women in Alcorcón, a suburb of Madrid, for their alleged involvement in a terrorist indoctrination case. The women, whose identities have not yet been released, are suspected of using a women's academy as a front to create and distribute radical, violent material online. According to a police spokesperson, "The suspects were actively recruiting and indoctrinating other Muslim women, using the guise of religious instruction to spread extremist ideology." The academy, which has since been closed, allegedly served as a hub for the distribution of this material across various social media platforms. The arrest follows a months-long investigation by the National Police's counter-terrorism unit. The investigation uncovered a significant amount of online content promoting violence and extremism. The police seized numerous electronic devices during the raid on the academy, which are currently being analyzed for further evidence. While the investigation is ongoing, the arrests highlight the ongoing threat of online radicalization and the importance of combating such activities. The swift action by the National Police underscores their commitment to ensuring the safety and security of all Spanish citizens.
