Harry Machura has had an eventful life of crime. He used to be a radical Islamist, campaigning for the holy war and for al-Qaeda. However, his weapons were not Kalashnikovs and hand grenades, but the Internet. He ran the popular website “Islamic Hacker Union”, where he published propaganda material and instructions on how to build bombs.
He went to prison for this. After serving his sentence, he used his IT skills as a computer specialist for a Hamburg drug gang that smuggled tons of cocaine.
A life for Allah and coke: Machura now talks exclusively about his criminal career for the first time.
