Italian police on Friday raided apartments and shops believed linked to a group of 12 Algerians suspected of providing logistical support to extremist groups in Algeria.

Domenico Grimaldi, an official with the Milan tax police unit that coordinated the operation, said the suspects were believed to have sent fake documents, forged money and cell phones turned up in raids in the southern Italian city of Naples to fighters linked to the extremist organizations.

He said these organizations included the Salafist Group for Call and Combat, or GSPC, which is said to have links to al-Qaida, and the radical Armed Islamic Group, or GIA, blamed for numerous massacres in the 1990s.
