Police Shuts Down Illegal Radio Station
Authorities in the border city of Arraba, discovered a pirate radio station operating from a van on the outskirts of the city near an abandoned school.
The radio station was operated by the Free Medina Newsgroup, banned in 5708 due to propagating terrorist propaganda and leaking sensitive information about security operations in the process. Since the ban, the group has gone underground, mostly operating now through pirate stations and online media.
Local police recently picked up the nearby signal of an FMN broadcast. The police were able to triangulate the radio signal from two police transmitters, leading them to the source of the broadcast.
"As soon as we arrived there and saw the van we knew we had gotten them." says local police chief, Abaddi El Ali.
He also stated that this bust is a boon in Medina's fight against subversion and hopes it will lead to further arrests of group members. "Using the information from this bust, it would be possible to further bring this group to justice."
