The French anti-terrorism prosecutor, Jean-Francois Ricard, announced today the remand of the perpetrator of the murderous attack against Professor Dominique Bernard in the city of Arras last Friday, charging him with murder, the creation of a terrorist organization, the preparation of criminal acts, etc. .a.

This is Mohammed Mogutskov, Russian citizen, 20 years old.

The prosecutor also ordered the pretrial detention of the 16-year-old brother of the perpetrator, as well as a cousin of theirs, who is under the age of 16. The latter is accused of having been “informed about the project” without “doing anything to prevent it”.

The anti-terrorism prosecutor also announced that ten suspects were being released from police custody due to a “lack of evidence” to support Muhammed Mogutskov.

Before his attack on the school, the attacker released a video in which he said he was acting in the name of the Islamic State group, but without mentioning Hamas.
