Valin Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 BBC: 16 February 2015 The suspected gunman, named by Danish media as Omar El-Hussein, 22, was shot dead by police after he attacked a free speech debate and a synagogue. (Snip) The two men are charged with providing and disposing of the weapon, as well as with helping the gunman to hide. Michael Juul Eriksen, a defence lawyer for one of the men, said they denied the charges. The suspects, who have not been named, appeared in a closed custody hearing on Monday. Omar El-Hussein, the Danish national suspected of carrying out Saturday's attacks, was known to police and had convictions for violent offences and dealing in weapons. El-Hussein was released from prison two weeks before the attacks after reportedly serving a two-year sentence for grievous bodily harm.
