Polish secret service tracks 200 people related to ISIS
The Polish secret service has been monitoring some 200 people (both foreigners and Poles) who may be cooperating with the Islamic State, TVN24 reported, citing data presented by The Internal Security Agency (ABW) in the Sejm. Chechens who established ties with the Islamic States while they were living in Poland represent the majority of the group. In addition, the report cites between five to ten Poles who converted to Islam and got in touch with the organization during their stay abroad. Eventually, they left to Syria. "This data shows that Poland is starting to be recognized by the Islamic State," MP Marek Opioła (PiS) told TVN24. According to a source quoted by TVN24,  the ABW caught three Chechens who were working on "a Polish logistics support unit" for ISIS in the spring.
