A source told CNN that the men--five in their report--were believed to be part of Mourad Fares’ network. Fares, a French national, recruited one of the Paris attackers, the source said. U.S. officials are believed to have provided the intelligence to the Swiss.
At least one of the suspects in the Paris attacks--Saleh Abdeslam--is still on the run. Geneva daily Le Temps reported that a friend of Abdeslam was spotted in a van by Geneva police earlier this week.
