STA, 4 August 2022 - A 28-year old Dutch man appeared at Koper District Court on Thursday after charges were pressed against him for allegedly possessing components to make an explosive device at a rented house near Ilirska Bistrica in the south-west.
After the hearing, the judge ruled the suspect is to remain in custody after reasonable grounds was established for illicit production and trafficking of weapons or explosives.
The man has been in custody since 25 June as he was to be extradited to his home country on the basis of the European Arrest Warrant, but the warrant had not been put to effect by the end of July.
