In November, the trial against the two men suspected of planning a terrorist attack against the Swedish Parliament will begin, announces the regional court in the German state of Thüringen.

The men were arrested in German Gera in March, when the police's special task force struck after a decision by Germany's Federal Prosecutor Jens Rommel.

They are suspected of planning to open fire on police officers and others in or near the Parliament in Stockholm. The terror plans are said to be motivated by the Koran burnings in Sweden and to have been developed in close consultation with IS Khorasan, which at least one of the suspects has joined.

The trial begins on November 15.
