On November 9 last year, at 5am, police in Vienna rammed into Farid Hafez’s two-storey apartment and pointed their guns at the political scientist and his family. After monitoring him for more than 20,000 hours, he was suspected of supporting “terrorism”, a charge he strongly denies. “It was just unthinkable. I could never have conceived of anything like that happening to me here,” Hafez, who works at the University of Salzburg, told Al Jazeera via Zoom. “I felt like this was a Hollywood movie with GIs surrounding me.” The incident took place a week after an Austrian man, who had been jailed before for trying to join ISIL (ISIS) but released after attending a deradicalisation programme, killed four people and injured more than 20 others in the Austrian capital.
