    of the CSIS Indicators of Mobilization to Violence (IMV) project continues

    behavioural analysis that identified an extremist's potential path towards engaging in or


    supporting violence (including travel for extremist purposes, plotting violent activity or
    facilitating these activities). This IA examines the issue of criminality within the IMV data set
    and compares the finding to open source study findings that indicate that criminality is becoming
    a more significant global fac~ aIOOtMLterrorist mobilizers.

    IMV mobilizers with criminal histories


    engaged in both severe and low-level
    illicit activities

    4. IMV data shows that mobilizers with


    criminal histories have engaged in a
    wide spectrum of illicit activities; the
    most frequently occurring types of
    criminality involve low level crimes
    and assaults. The adjacent chart

    10. IMV criminal mobilizers generally did not make a direct leap from crime to terrorist
    mobilization.

    14. Furthermore, among IMV mobilizers, the proportion and overall number of criminal
    mobilizers is not increasing, despite the growing criminal nature of extremist groups abroad and
    trend lines in European homegrown extremists.
