Austria: Terror Suspect Found Dead in Cell Prior to Deportation to Russia

"Hi! You have reached the suicide hotline. If you are a terrorist and considering suicide, all of our operators are assisting other callers. Please call back in 6 months. Goodbye."


Today in Austria, a 40-year-old ISIS terror suspect from Dagestan was found dead in his cell on the day (today) he was to be deported to Russia. He was part of a group that was accused of planning a terror attack in Vienna and the Cologne Cathedral in Germany during the Christmas season of 2023. A separate Austrian source (Der Standard) is reporting the death was, indeed, suicide. Last May, the criminal charges were dropped, but the group was still held in detention pending deportation.

At the end of the below article, the newspaper (Heute) writes info about how to call the suicide hotline!!!! (So does the Der Standard.)

A terror cell from the notorious ISIS-offshoot, Islamic State-Khorasan (ISPK), caused a lot of commotion last Christmas Eve with attack plans against the Vienna Stephan's Cathedral. After an investigation by State Security, five terror suspects were arrested in Germany and Vienna.

The group was surprisingly released from custody at the end of May. According to (the judiciary), there was no exigent suspicion of a crime. All the suspects- 4 men and 1 woman were transferred to deportation custody.

A 40-year-old from Dagestan was reportedly the brain of the terror network. On Thursday, the man was to be flown to Russia. However, according to a report from "Krone" (news) the IS- fanatic was found dead in his cell during the morning hours.
