Spanish authorities have detained a Moroccan teenager for her alleged role in recruiting female subjects to join the Takfiri Daesh terrorist group while allegedly planning to flee to Syria herself.

The Saturday arrest of the yet unidentified 18-year-old was the latest in a wave of recent arrests in Spain and Morocco tied to female recruitment efforts for the foreign-backed terrorist group, the UK-based Daily Mail reported Sunday.

The girl “was making the last preparations for her journey” to Syria at the time of the arrest, the report added, citing a police statement. The statement further said that another female teenager had been detained back in July on similar charges.

The Moroccan teen was paraded in handcuffs before crowds following her arrest in Gandia, near Valencia. It added that people watched at a busy central road as police and masked counter-terrorism units lined the streets and two officers led the burqa-clad teenager down the central street.

Other officers followed, said the report, while carrying boxes of evidence seized from the teenager’s apartment. There was no indication, however, of whether the girl was living alone or with other people.

The report cited an August 25 statement by Spain’s Interior Ministry as saying that 14 suspects were arrested within a few days by Spanish and Moroccan police forces and charged with taking part in a Daesh-linked recruiting network. It added that the arrest were made in the city of San Martin de la Vega, nearly 30 kilometers south of the Spanish capital of Madrid, as well as a number of major Moroccan cities.

Meanwhile, police said the detained teenager had been living in Spain for some time, spreading radical Takfiri ideology on the internet and “justifying terrorist acts and spreading videos that glorified executions of people.”

“She had focused her online activity on recruiting women to go and swell the ranks of Daesh,” read the police statement.
