A young Syrian national has been charged by German authorities with supporting a foreign terror group over a foiled plot to attack a Taylor Swift concert in Vienna last August.
Mohamed A, who is described as a juvenile and still at liberty, is accused of following the ideology of jihadist group Islamic State (IS) and helping another suspect to prepare the attack.
Concert organisers called off Taylor Swift’s three sold-out gigs on the eve of the first show at Vienna’s Ernst Happel Stadium last year, disappointing tens of thousands of fans during her Eras Tour.
Authorities arrested several suspects at the time saying they appeared to have been inspired by IS and al-Qaeda.
