IS threat: Experts warn of self-radicalised lone wolves


KUALA LUMPUR: With IS (Islamic State) finding new ways of reaching out through the Internet, experts are warning Malaysians of the threat of "self radicalised" lone wolves.

They note that Malaysian IS members are asking their countrymen to fight alongside IS in the wake of the terrorist group's "recognition" of the southern Philppines-based Abu Sayyaf as part of the Islamic State "caliphate".
