Twenty-five suspected members of the Anonymous hacking movement have been arrested in a sweep across South America and Europe, Interpol says.
The arrests were made in Argentina, Chile, Colombia and Spain by local police working in collaboration with Interpol’s Latin American information technology crime group, a statement released on Tuesday from the international police agency said.
The suspects, aged between 17 and 40, are suspected of planning co-ordinated cyber attacks against various state and non-state institutions, including Colombia’s defence ministry and presidential websites, Chile’s Endesa electricity company and national library, and several other targets.
Six of the suspects were arrested in Chile, four in Spain, five in Colombia and 10 in Argentina, Spanish police said.
The arrests come after an ongoing investigation, begun in mid-February, which also led to the seizure of 250 items of IT equipment and mobile phones at 40 locations in 15 cities, Interpol said.
