According to the National Bureau of Investigation(NBI), it's web monitoring program it started last month has stopped a school attack.

According to the article, the attack was only ''was within an inch or two of being carried out". The police aren't giving any info on the attack, and the Chief of Police was unwillng to give the location.. Well, what does NSG think? My brother thinks it was a setup thing to give a reason for the monitoring and I'm kinda leaning on that.

Monitoring who and where, exactly?
I think the situation has been exaggerated.
I won't believe it fully until charges have been filed and the persons caught have been found guilty.
Eh.........this seems iffy.

I prevented an attack on your life today. Can't tell you by who, why, where or how of course, but I will gladly accept significant sums of money as a token of your appreciation.

The inspector refuses to confirm that there's a criminal investigation, and says that building a case would be difficult... I don't know anything about Finnish law, but I'm assuming that the standard of evidence they have is similar to America. There's a big gap between a credible threat and a criminal case, so I wouldn't dismiss this out of hand.

Yeah, I'll get right on that. Will take maybe 5-8 years.
