The following day, investigators stated they had been granted extra time to interrogate the remaining four, who were also detained on "suspicion of commission, preparation and instigation of terrorist acts."
On midweek, authorities indicated they too were set to be released but clarified that "was not an indication the probe was complete."
Also on Wednesday, authorities disclosed that the suspect made a 999 call in which he swore loyalty to the organization identifying as IS.
One victim, sixty-six, and fifty-three-year-old another victim died in the attack on a local road in the area.
