Suspects in Scandinavian Tourist Murders Arrested; ISIS Links Probed

After three days of tracking, the three men suspected of killing the two Scandinavian tourists were arrested yesterday morning at the Marrakech bus station.
The latter were inside a bus that was supposed to take the direction of Agadir, according to the investigators. The men were spotted by a street vendor who then informed the police.
In their bags, the police found four knives (three large and one small), mobile phones, a slingshot, a little cash (225 dirhams), a Quran and a watch.
The first suspect had been arrested on Tuesday morning in Marrakech. All four had pledged allegiance to the terrorist group Daesh in a video that circulated on Twitter yesterday and was later authenticated by the services of the Central Bureau of Judicial Investigation (BCIJ).
