Police hold press briefing to announce latest news and discoveries
The man taken into custody after an explosion at Hotel Jørgensen on Friday continues to do everything in his power to conceal his true identity.
At a press conference in Copenhagen today, inspector Svend Foldager said police still have no idea who the man is or his possible motive.
He did not have a mobile phone, credit cards or any other evidence indicating where he came from or where he may have been prior to arriving in Copenhagen. The only thing he did have on him was a Belgian ID card, but it turns out this card did not belong to him.
The suspect has told police that he is a vegetarian and although he has not given evidence of following any one kind of religion, he asked for a Koran and a Bible.
Police have also found out that the suspect scratched out the serial number on his prosthetic leg. The leg, which wears on his right leg, seems to be an expensive model from western Europe.
Lastly, police found a multitool and a gun on the man. The tool was found at the man’s hotel room and the gun he had on him at the time of his arrest in Ørstedsparken.
Police are currently seeing if they can use the gun and the ammunition in the gun to trace down any locations where he has been.
Police said that they have no other suspects in the case.
