Police arrest five more people after beheading teacher

Five more people were arrested this Saturday morning in the investigation into the beheading of a history professor, near a college in the Paris suburbs, in a total of nine arrests.

Among the five people now detained are the parents of a student at the Bois d’Aulne college in Conflans-Sainte-Honorine, just outside the capital of the country, where the victim worked. These people had a discussion with the teacher about caricatures of Muhammad that the teacher had shown in class.

These five arrests are in addition to the other four that have already occurred in Evreux (northwest), including a minor, from the suspect’s family circle.

The identity of the attacker, in which an identification document was found, was also confirmed by investigators, according to a judicial source, and he is an 18-year-old Chechen Russian, born in Moscow, with no criminal record.
