KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia--Malaysian police arrested 14 people, including a teenager, suspected of having links to the militant group Islamic State, in a three-day operation that ended Wednesday.
The 14 suspects, all Malaysian nationals, were arrested in Selangor state, Inspector-General of Police Khalid Abu Bakar said in a statement. None of the suspects, aged 14 to 48, were named.
Three of the suspects were allegedly "prime movers in a cell responsible for recruiting, financing, and arranging travel of Malaysian citizens to join terror group in Syria," Mr. Khalid said.
One of the suspects allegedly operated a Facebook account that promotes and recruits Malaysians to wage holy war in Syria. Five suspects came from a family that allegedly planned to join Islamic State in Syria, he added.
"They were arrested based on police surveillance on their preparation to head for Syria via Turkey," Mr. Khalid was quoted as saying in an earlier report Wednesday from Bernama, the state news agency.
Including the latest group, police have arrested 36 people suspected of having links to Islamic State since April, Bernama reported, citing Mr. Khalid.
Authorities are increasingly worried that Malaysians traveling to fight in Iraq and Syria could return home and carry out attacks on Malaysian soil.
In August, authorities said they foiled plans by homegrown militants to attack a brewery in Selangor owned by Danish beer maker Carlsberg A/S.
A top counterterror official told The Wall Street Journal in September that the planned attack on the beer maker had been at an early stage and the 19 people allegedly involved had sworn loyalty to Islamic State and acquired bomb-making materials.
On Wednesday, Home Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi told Parliament that authorities have identified 39 Malaysians as having links with militant groups, including Islamic State, Bernama said.
