For a few seconds, all eyes in the entrance hall of the Avignon police station were on the man who shouted “Allahu akbar” in front of the police officers at the reception. This incident took place in the early afternoon of July 1st.
This behaviour was considered all the more worrying by the forces of order because the almost 35-year-old resident of the papal city is under special surveillance. He has an entry in the S-card index and is considered a radical Islamist. However, the person is also known for his psychiatric problems and does not take his medication very conscientiously.Le Dauphiné
