Announcement comes as France prepares to pay tribute to teacher beheaded outside school
Seven people, including two schoolchildren, will appear before a judge to face possible charges over the beheading of a teacher who showed his class caricatures of the prophet Muhammad, France’s anti-terrorism prosecutor has said.
The announcement on Wednesday came as France prepared to pay tribute to Samuel Paty, who was decapitated outside his school last Friday, at a ceremony during which the president, Emmanuel Macron, was to posthumously award him the Légion d’Honneur.
