Taylor Swift’s Vienna concerts cancelled over planned Islamist attack

American singer, Taylor Swift’s three concerts in Vienna this week have been cancelled following an Islamist attack plot.

NEWSUNPLUG reports that the cancellation came after the government confirmed a planned attack at the stadium.

The show organiser, Barracuda Music, made the announcement late on Wednesday, and Austria’s Chancellor Karl Nehammer said a tragedy was prevented.

In an Instagram post, the organizer said, “With confirmation from government officials of a planned terrorist attack at Ernst Happel Stadium, we have no choice but to cancel the three scheduled shows for everyone’s safety.”

The organisers added that all tickets bought for Thursday, Friday and Saturday’s concerts, would be refunded.

Recall that the government had earlier confirmed the arrest of a 19-year-old Islamic State, IS, group sympathiser for allegedly planning an Islamist attack in the Vienna region, warning he had a “focus” on Swift’s three upcoming shows.

Austria’s top security chief, Franz Ruf told a press conference that the suspect, who had pledged his allegiance to IS in recent weeks, was detained in Lower Austria about an hour from the capital early on Wednesday.
