Milan prosecutors will request jail custody for researcher Youssef Siher, arrested on terrorism charges, with a validation hearing expected before a judge tomorrow. Siher was detained based on analysis of his devices by postal police, which allegedly found material including posts from the "Movimento 17ottobre" he reportedly managed, detailing protest locations for rallies in Milan. Prosecutor Francesca Crupi will seek formal arrest validation, with Siher not yet interrogated. The posts allegedly instructed protesters to form a "single river" toward the city center from three squares.
