(CNN)Geneva, Switzerland, is on high alert as police search for suspects related to the terror attacks in Paris, a source close to the investigation told CNN.

Geneva police are looking for five radicalized people suspected to be part of Mourad Fares' network, the source said.

Fares, a French national, is the man who recruited Foued Mohamed-Aggad, who was identified Wednesday as the third attacker at the Bataclan theater in Paris, the source said.

According to French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve, Fares is a known recruiter for jihad in Syria. French intelligence sources say he's worked for ISIS, mainly in Francophone countries, and in Switzerland, including in Geneva.
