MADRID (AP) – A Spanish judge on Wednesday ordered jail without bail for two women repatriated from Syria for their suspected involvement with the Daesh terrorist group. The pair should be held because they are considered to be a flight risk and of their long alleged connections with Daesh, the judge said in a statement issued by the National Court. The women are under investigation for the crime of belonging to a terrorist organization. The court considers the women as part of the so-called Al-Andalus Brigade based in Madrid that indoctrinated individuals and helped them travel to Syria and Iraq where they fought for Daesh. The two women and their husbands then both moved to Iraq in 2014.
