The Swedish Security Service (Säpo) has carried out several raids in southern Sweden against a 32-year-old man from Malmö, suspected of being involved in planning terrorist acts in Denmark.

The raids are linked to a large-scale operation led by the Danish Security and Intelligence Service (PET).

The man, who is well-known to police for his ties to the criminal milieu, is reportedly one of four individuals placed under arrest in absentia and are currently wanted.

Several items were seized during the raids, none of which were deemed immediately dangerous.

The suspect is believed to have fled abroad.
