A rap concert in Geneva was evacuated after the venue received terroristic threats, from a man linked to jihadist networks.
Around 8,500 people attending a rap concert in Geneva were evacuated Saturday night after the venue received terroristic threats from a man linked to jihadist networks, who was later arrested by police.
The 40-year-old suspect in the case was arrested after the Arena concert hall in Geneva was evacuated, forcing the crowd of 8,500 people to leave the venue, which was set to see a performance by French rapper Lomepal that evening. Police say that the terror threats against the venue were made online, although the exact details of the threats were not disclosed by police or the public prosecutor in the case, broadcaster RTSOlivier Francey, spokesman of the Geneva Public Prosecutor’s Office, did, however, note that the suspect has links to jihadist networks and that the man is accused of terroristic threats.
The order to evacuate came just prior to when the rapper was set to appear on stage as the first part of the concert had already taken place. The audience were told to leave the venue after waiting an hour for the French rapper to appear and were met with a large police presence after leaving the concert hall.
A cell of jihadists based in Geneva plotted to bomb cisterns full of oil near the city’s airport in a major terror attack.
