The 20-year-old is also said to have been accompanied on the trip by a previously unknown man. So far there is no more detailed information about his identity.

Two suspects arrested in Zurich

Meanwhile, two Swiss were arrested in Zurich on Tuesday afternoon. The 18-year-old and the 24-year-old are suspected of having had contact with the Vienna attacker. They should have connections to the radical Islamic scene and the Islamic State (IS), like them. NZZ reported.

Radical Salafists in Switzerland could boast of having had exclusive contact with the Vienna attacker. The two men are “colleagues” of the killer, as reported by the Swiss Justice Minister Karin Keller-Sutter. The three men also met physically, the justice minister said. He did not provide further information on the detained persons. However, it is quite common for assassins to exchange ideas with like-minded people via social media before their attack.
