Tunisian attacker Anis Amri hijacked a truck on December 19th, killed its Polish driver and ploughed the vehicle through the market in a attack claimed by the Isis terror group that claimed 11 more lives. Four days after the December attack, Amri, 24, was shot dead by Italian police after he fled to Milan. One of those arrested at the airport had been waiting to go to Europe with the intention of launching a terror attack after he had entered Turkey illegally, the reports added.
