Berlin: German investigator on Wednesday stormed the house of two acquaintances of an Islamic group of sympathizers who carried out deadly shootings in Vienna in November, the prosecutor said.
The two men might know about Gunman Kujim Fejarim starting for the attack and failed to tell authority, instead of removing material on their cellphones and the social media platform to cover their connections to Fejari, said Federal Prosecutor in a statement.
Four people were killed in an attack on November 2 and the Gunman also died.
Twenty others, including a police officer, was injured.
Fejzulai, a citizen of Austria and North Macedonia northern, has a previous confidence because trying to join is in Syria.
The prosecutor identified a man whose homes were sought Wednesday in Osnabrueck and Kassel only as residents of Kosovo Blinor S and German german drilon g, in accordance with the rules of German privacy.
The prosecutor did not say whether the couple had been arrested.
They said that both of them were radical Islam and had made close contact with FeJzulai through social media.
They visited him in Vienna for several days in July 2020, shortly after he got the weapon he used in the attack, and met another radical from Austria and Switzerland, according to the prosecutor.
The prosecutor accused that, remembering their “close personal relationships” with fejzulai and their own radical view, the two men knew that during the visit it ended so maybe he would act on his intention to attack.
They said that the couple began to remove the material that connected it with the attacker on November 2, before the attack began.
