Liege killings being considered 'terrorist murders', says Belgian federal magistrate

The Liege killings are being considered "terrorist murders", a Belgian federal magistrate said.

The Liege attacks which left three people dead are being considered "terrorist murders", and the investigation now centres on whether the attacker acted alone, a Belgian federal magistrate said.

The attacker, identified as Benjamin Herman, shouted "Allahu akbar," the Arabic phrase for "God is great", several times during spree before he was shot down by a group of police officers, magistrate Wenke Roggen said.
