Morocco's Central Office of Judicial Research said in a statement Thursday that the three new suspects were arrested in Marrakech. The killing has shocked Morocco, a popular tourist destination where attacks on foreigners are extremely rare. The victim's mother, Irene Ueland, told NRK that her daughter had taken safety precautions before making the trip. Authorities in Denmark and Norway on Wednesday warned their citizens from hiking without local guides in Morocco after the killing. Morocco is generally considered safe for tourists but has battled for years with Islamic extremism for years, and thousands of Moroccans joined the Islamic State group.
