Dutch prosecutors said on April 16 they had detained four men suspected of planning an attack on the Turkish Consulate in Rotterdam.

In a statement, the national prosecutor’s office identified the four as Moroccan-Dutch and evidence of their plot surfaced from a wiretap of a different man arrested in 2017.

Three of the men are to be brought before a judge this week, while the fourth was arrested in Belgium and will be extradited, prosecutors said.
