After five years of republishing a mocking account of the Islamic prophet Muhammad, a young Muslim discontented with the controversial French weekly Charlie Evdo, in Paris, wounded two people with guns. Concerns have been raised that the terrors of retaliation predicted by the Muslim world have become reality.
According to the AFP news agency, on the 25th (local time), an 18-year-old Pakistani named Ali was wounded in a street near Charle Evdo’s former office in the 11th arrondissement of Paris, wielding a butcher knife. The victims were employees of a nearby video production company and were beaten while smoking. Life is known to be unaffected. Thousands of elementary, middle and high school students near the crime scene were terrified that they could not leave the school until the situation was over.
The killer Ali was arrested near the crime scene. Police searched Ali’s residence in a Paris suburb and arrested 7 people, including Ali and his acquaintances. Ali came to France in 2018 and lived in a ramshackle apartment in a suburb of the city of Pentin, north of Paris, according to public radio RFI. Interior Minister Gerald Dharmanin said it was “an obvious act of Islamist terror.”
French media reported that, quoting the police, Ali said: “I wanted revenge for republishing a cartoon ridiculing Muhammad by Charley Evdo.” In 2015, in retaliation for Charley Evdo’s satirical criticism of Muhammad, two young Algerian Al Qaeda Muslims infiltrated Charley Evdo’s Editorial Board, killing 10 people, including the editor-in-chief and Man Rating, with firearms. .
The trial of 14 people accused of providing funds and weapons to terror perpetrators at the time began earlier this month, and Charly Evdo published a special issue reissuing the controversial cartoons five years ago. . As a result, concerns have been raised that allusions of retaliation and terrorist attacks by al-Qaeda by Islamic extremists may be repeated.
Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan on the 25th, when Ali was wielding a gun in Paris, criticized Charlie Evdo in a speech at the UN General Assembly. In his video speech for the day, Prime Minister Khan said: “As nationalism spreads around the world, it is promoting Islamic hatred,” and said: “It is a recent case of the reappearance of blasphemy by Charley Evdo “. Earlier this month, anti-French protests were held in Pakistan over Charly Evdo’s reissue of Muhammad man magazine.
