The French newspaper “Le Monde” revealed a surprise about the man who threatened pedestrians on a street in the French city of Avignon, and the police killed him, on Thursday morning.
The famous French daily said the man who was killed by the police and who threatened passersby “belongs to the extreme right and planned to attack Muslims.”
He stated: “The man was from the far-right group” Génération Identitaire “(Preservation of identity) and threatened to attack a merchant of Maghreb origin.”
It indicated that the deceased was 33 years old and suffered from mental disorders.
French security forces shot dead a man who threatened bystanders with a large knife in the southern French city, in the second such attack in the country in a few hours. About an hour earlier, an attack on a church in Nice (southeast) left 3 dead and others injured. Sources said the attacker chanted “God is great.”
The weights at that time were based on the fact that what happened in Avignon was related to the Nice accident, but “Le Monde” revealed otherwise.
For its part, the French website “C News” quoted the Prosecutor’s Office as saying: “We changed the course of the investigation and deviated from the assumption of Islam … The man was subjected to psychological monitoring and had previously made inconsistent comments” , according to “Sky News”.
