Morocco Terror Suspects Pledged Allegiance to ISIS Before Hikers’ Murder

The four suspects arrested as part of the investigation into the murder of the two Scandinavian women near Mount Toubkal had pledged allegiance to the terrorist group Daesh.
This is what the Attorney General of the King has just revealed after analyzing the video broadcast on Thursday on an anonymous Twitter account. It was filmed last week "before the execution of the criminal acts that are the subject of the investigation," the prosecutor said.
The Central Bureau of Judicial Investigation (BCIJ) was tasked "with investigating and verifying the authenticity of the video circulated on social networks, showing the four individuals arrested, as part of the investigation into the murder of the two foreign tourists, pledging allegiance to the alleged Emir of ’Daesh’, and in which they express their intention to commit terrorist acts," the statement said.
The investigation continues to determine the true motives and elucidate the circumstances of this case, the statement concludes.
