Suspicious attack Paris confesses: ‘angry’ after relocating cartoons | Abroad

Charlie Hebdo’s former office was the target of a radical Islamic attack that killed 12 people five years ago. Police later killed the two perpetrators. Three weeks ago, the trial against their alleged accomplices began. Charlie Hebdo then republished the controversial cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad. This again led to protests in Islamic countries, including Pakistan.

A total of nine people were detained for the stabbing incident on Saturday. Five of them were arrested Friday in the Parisian suburb of Pantin in a house where the Pakistani is said to live. In addition, a man who had previously been a roommate of his in the Val-d’Oise district north of Paris was arrested for questioning. On Saturday, the younger brother and an acquaintance of the Muslim teenager were arrested, according to sources within the judiciary.

Suspect released

One suspect arrested on Friday was released. According to the sources, this man turned out to be a witness who ran after the main suspect.

The two injured, employees of a journalistic film company, were wounded with a large knife, including in the face. They were presumably randomly attacked as victims of the retaliation and are not in danger of their lives.

The 18-year-old main suspect who arrived in France three years ago, is said to have been arrested earlier this year with a stabbing weapon. The authorities assume a terrorist act. The man would have thought that the Hebdo office was still in the same building. The magazine’s new address is classified.
