Prosecutors from DIICOT – Central Structure ordered, on October 12, the continuation of criminal proceedings against three minors—two 16-year-old boys and one 17-year-old—suspected of having accessed and possessed terrorist propaganda materials. The activities allegedly took place throughout 2026, online, in support of terrorist organizations.

According to investigators, the three allegedly possessed such materials in order to adopt an Islamic terrorist ideology, as part of an alleged radicalization process. One of the minors allegedly drafted guides on methods for concealing membership in a terrorist organization, interacting with the authorities, and disguising hostile intentions. For research purposes, he allegedly used articles published on an online platform serving a propagandistic role.

Fighters from the Special Actions Service, forensic officers, and police officers from several counties, as well as gendarmes, participated in the operations. The Romanian Police draws attention to the fact that adolescents are vulnerable to extremist propaganda and emphasizes the importance of early intervention by the family, school, and institutions.

The persons under investigation benefit from procedural rights and the presumption of innocence.

Context: anchete anterioare privind radicalizarea și exploatarea minorilor în mediul online

În spațiul european, autoritățile au semnalat anterior existența unor rețele online care vizează minori, inclusiv prin conținut extremist violent și mecanisme de recrutare. Europol a anunțat o acțiune coordonată împotriva unui ecosistem digital asociat radicalizării minorilor, șantajului sexual, automutilării și violenței, în care conținutul a fost identificat și transmis platformelor pentru evaluare și eliminare.

În paralel, în România au existat și alte investigații care au implicat minori în contexte infracționale sau de vulnerabilitate. DIICOT a derulat percheziții într-un caz de pornografie infantilă, iar polițiștii au intervenit și în situații în care adolescenți au fost expuși la conținut și comportamente periculoase, inclusiv prin publicarea unor materiale pe internet după agresiuni.

Totodată, au fost raportate cazuri în care tineri au fost cercetați pentru promovarea ideologiilor extremiste sau pentru pregătirea unor atacuri, iar autoritățile au subliniat riscurile pe care le implică radicalizarea și influențarea minorilor prin canale online.
