E-mailAMSTERDAM, March 27 (Reuters) - Dutch prosecutors on Friday said three men had been arrested on suspicion of being involved in an antisemitic attack on a synagogue or for helping to prepare a similar attack.
Two Dutch men, aged 20 and 23, were arrested for their alleged roles in the attack on a synagogue in Rotterdam on March 13, the prosecutors said.
Seven suspects are now in custody for the Rotterdam attack.
Another 18-year-old man was arrested for his alleged involvement in preparing for an attack on a synagogue in the town of Heemstede.
Police last week already arrested two minors, who they said had been plotting to set off an explosion at a synagogue in that town, 25 kilometres (15.5 miles) west of Amsterdam.
