“In the framework of investigations carried out following the Paris attacks, at the international and national level, Geneva police and their partners are actively looking for people whose description has been provided by the Swiss Confederation,” the Geneva department of security said in a statement.
It was not, though, clear from the Geneva statement whether the suspects were directly linked to the Paris attacks, but a Geneva spokeswoman said she had no further comment.

U.N. security guards in Geneva were stationed with MP5 sub-machine guns at entry points for cars, a highly unusual measure at the sprawling complex near the French border, as Reuters says.

“It is maximum alert,” a second U.N. guard told Reuters.
