Omar el-Hussein, the 22-year-old Danish man shot dead by police after supposedly carrying out the worst attack on Danish soil for decades, was a smart student but reportedly had a short fuse and was prone to violence.
Two men detained on Sunday have been ordered to remain in custody for 10 days after being charged with aiding the suspect in the Copenhagen terror attacks, and senior rabbis and Jewish politicians have warned of rising fears of antisemitism across Europe.
