The Vienna Criminal Court has renewed the arrest of 10 suspects who are believed to have involved in the latest terroristic attacks in Vienna earlier this month.

The Spokesman of the court Kristina Salzburg announced in a press statement on Thursday that the arrest of the suspects is legally correct, however, eight of them have appealed the decision and their arguments were rejected.

She added that the attacker's partner was killed at the crime scene by the police.

In the same context, she pointed out that one of the suspects sent her a letter expressing his relation and describing it as "superficial" with the main criminal and he has no relationship with what is called "Radical Islamists" or the terrorist attack.

He underscored that he has no idea about the nature of the criminal's ideological thoughts.
