Police arrest three more suspects in the Stockholm truck attack after “special forces” conducted a raid a property about twelve miles from the atrocity which killed four. Swedish police on Saturday identified the suspected truck driver who killed four people in Stockholm as a 39-year-old man from Uzbekistan. Uzbekistan is a largely Muslim country  “an authoritarian state with limited civil rights.”

The suspect was known to police and was in possession of ISIS propaganda.

The driver was “known” to intelligence services but was deemed a ” ‘marginal character’. This sounds strikingly similar to the description of the Westminster car jihadi was was also “known” to intelligence services but was on the “periphery.” How much jihad gets you inside the margins and/or the periphery.

This is the third terror attack in Europe in two weeks, coming on the heels of assaults in London and Saint Petersburg.

These attacks are a stunning indictment of the failed policy of the pro-sharia, pro-immigration Euro-elites.

According to broadcaster SVT, this suspect was arrested in the northern suburb Hjulsta and he is said to be connected to the man who was arrested earlier in the evening

  • A homemade bomb has been found inside the stolen truck which was used to drive into people in Stockholm
  • Police told a press conference today that the suspect, from Uzbekistan, was known to the security services
  • Three more suspects were arrested on Saturday afternoon and a police special forces operation is underway

By Jake Wallis Simons, Associate Global Editor In Stockholm For Mailonline and Paul Thompson In Stockholm and Abe Hawken and Isobel Frodsham and Rory Tingle For Mailonline, 8 April 2017:

Police investigating Friday’s atrocity arrested three more suspects in central Stockholm on Saturday afternoon.

It is understood that the suspects were taken from a car that was connected to the suspected terrorist.

Officers smashed the window on the driver’s side as they took the suspects into custody at five o’clock, Swedish media reported.

The police has not yet commented on the arrests.

It comes as a major police operation is taking place in Vårberg, a suburb of Western Stockholm about 12 miles from the scene of the attack.

Police special forces have been seen raiding a property in the area and technicians have removed a number of items of evidence from the address.

Earlier it was revealed the 39-year-old Uzbek man who has been arrested over the Stockholm truck attack was known to the police and has ISIS propaganda on his laptop.

Police also confirmed a homemade bomb was found inside the truck and the man arrested is ‘likely’ to be the driver.

The head of Sweden’s domestic intelligence agency told a press conference today that the suspect had been on authorities’ radar some time ago.

Anders Thornberg, head of the Swedish Security Service, said: ‘The suspect didn’t appear in our recent files but he earlier has been in our files.’

Police chief Dan Eliasson added that the suspect was a ‘marginal character’ and was not thought to be under direct surveillance.

The man, who is from Uzbekistan, was arrested in the early hours of the morning after the terror attack left four people dead and 15 injured.

Speaking at the press conference in the Swedish capital Stockholm, Eliasson said he could not give any further details on the suspect or if he had any links to the ISIS terror group.

He said: ‘He was known. The intelligence and security police were aware and said he was a marginal character.

‘There is nothing that tells us that we have the wrong person.’

He added he did not know whether others were involved in the attack and said ‘we cannot exclude this’.

It is not know how long the suspect had been in Sweden. Reports by Swedish media described him as a father of four who was found to have ISIS propaganda on his laptop.

Reports have also suggested that the suspect posted jihadist propaganda on social media and had pictures of injured people following the Boston Marathon explosion in 2013.

Police said they were still at a preliminary stage in the inquiry and they were trying to build up a profile of the arrested man’s behaviour and to see if he was part of a wider cell.

The police said he couldn’t confirm or deny if the suspect acted alone.

Eliasson urged the public to remain alert and said he was confident the police in the country could deal with any further terror attacks

To paraphrase London’s Radical Muslim mayor:

It seems the muzlums of Sweden are getting bored with rape, assaults and intimidation.
Now they have moved up to using trucks with bombs to run over people on the side walk and trying to blow up buildings.
You can expect more.
How is the love for the muzlum savages working out for you so far.
