“He had neither the means nor the possibility and the explosives to carry this out,” Defense lawyer Werner Tomanek said, per Associated Press. He added that “the alleged attack plans were pure fantasies.”
Tomanek said that his client had admitted “in principle to Islamist tendencies” because “he found it cool.”

Associated Press previously reported that the main suspect in the case, a 19-year-old male, confessed that he planned to “kill as many people as possible” outside Ernst Happel Stadium, where Swift was scheduled to perform from August 8 to 10.
In a statement on Wednesday (Aug. 7), Barracuda Music, the concert promoters for the Austrian shows said, “With confirmation from government officials of a planned terrorist attack at Ernst Happel Stadium, we have no choice but to cancel the three scheduled shows for everyone’s safety. All tickets will be automatically refunded within the next 10 business days.”
The person identified as the main plotter reportedly quit his job and “conspicuously changed his appearance and adapted to IS [Islamic State] propaganda,” despite his North Macedonian roots. Omar Haijawi-Pirchner, Austria’s head of the Directorate of State Security and Intelligence, said the suspect wanted to use knives or homemade explosives to attack Swifties outside the stadium at the event, which was expected to draw more than 195,000 fans.
Authorities also said that I.S. and al-Qaida materials were found at the home of a second, 17-year-old Austrian suspect, who was reportedly recently hired by a company that provides services at the venue. Both suspects are currently in custody.
Swift is currently set to perform at London’s Wembley Stadium over five sold-out nights from August 15 to 20.

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom clearly took the easy way out on a recent vacation, where, according to Perry’s Instagram feed, they spent a leisurely afternoon jumping out of a helicopter into the ocean. You heard that right. On Monday (August 12), Perry posted photos and video of the engaged couple getting hyped before leaping out of the chopper into the sea. Perry soundtracked the clip with a her current single, “Lifetimes,” and captioned it with a few lines from the dance banger whose Ibiza-shot video has a similarly beach-y, endless summer vacation theme.
“Like the stars are in the sky/ You and I will find each other / In every single life,” Perry wrote in the caption to the heli-hop post.

Perry recently revealed the track list for her upcoming 11-track 143 album (Sept. 20), which will feature “Lifetimes” and previous single, “Woman’s World,” as well as: “I’m His He’s Mine,” “Crush,” “Nirvana,” “All the Love,” “Truth” and “Wonder,” as well as three songs with as-yet-undisclosed features, “Gorgeous,” “Gimme Gimme” and “Artificial.”
The couple, who’ve dated since 2016 and got engaged in 2019, share three-year-old daughter Daisy Dove. The dive was not super surprising for Bloom, who risked life and limb in his recent Peacock series, Orlando Bloom: To The Edge, in which he went for a wingsuit flight, did a lung-busting free dive in the Bahamas and climb to the top of a 400-foot tower in Utah to stand on a tiny platform.
