BIS says it has no information indicating immediate risk of terrorist attack in the Czech Republic

The BIS counter-intelligence does not have any information which would indicate that the Czech Republic faces an immediate risk of a terrorist attack, its spokesman Jan Šubert told the ctk news agency on Friday. The BIS announcement came in reaction to a statement by Europol head Rob Wainwright who said Europe now faces the highest terror threat since the 9/11 attacks in the US. "We do not have any information from our domestic sources or from our partners abroad about any immediate danger threatening the Czech Republic” Šubert said. The Czech government announced recently it was stepping up security at key institutions in the country.
