Belgium: Man stabs three people in Metro station, witnesses say he was screaming ‘Allahu akbar,’ but cops rule out terrorism

“The Prosecutor’s Office said that terrorism is not suspected as a motive. This was contradicted by other witness reports that claimed the suspect shouted ‘Allahu Akbar’ before committing the attacks.”

What do you think accounts for this discrepancy? Were these witnesses all under the influence of hallucinogens? Or do police desperately want to cover up the extent of jihad violence?
