Still "innocent"?
Swift assassin (19) now has a star lawyer
The failed assassin (19) from the Taylor Swift concert has changed his legal representation according to information from "Krone". He is now being represented by Viennese star lawyer Werner Tomanek.
Until now, 19-year-old Beran A. from Ternitz (Lower Austria) was represented by the Burgenland criminal defense lawyer Ina-Christin Stiglitz. According to reports, it was the suspect's parents who contacted Tomanek. They had hired him for a fee - it was not a favor.
Under Stiglitz, Beran A. - who, according to information from the "Krone" newspaper, had already fully confessed to investigators - suddenly denied his terror plans. The investigators had probably "misunderstood some things" at first, it was said.
Will this strategy change now? Tomanek, who has been active in criminal law for decades and has represented hundreds of suspected serious criminals, is not yet revealing his cards.
The experienced top lawyer with a law firm in the center of Vienna first wants to study the case in detail ...
19-year-old announced "something big"
As reported, A. had sworn allegiance to IS just a few weeks ago and announced "something big" in messenger services. The Austrian secret services drew up a rough plan of attack: Slashing and stabbing weapons in combination with explosives were to have been used. "He wanted to kill himself and as many people as possible."
The picture of attack planning and radicalization is solidifying.

Regarding the ongoing investigations, Interior Minister Gerhard Karner (ÖVP) only stated on Monday that the picture of "attack planning and radicalization" was becoming more solidified. However, traces of other security staff involved in the planning are unlikely to have led to any new findings.
