From the Daily Mail. This was never a workplace murder!
The French civilian police worker who murdered four colleagues with a knife has been linked to a radical Islamist terrorist organisation.
Now, following a raid on the couple’s flat in the Paris suburb on Gonesse, anti-terrorist prosecutors in the French capital have opened an enquiry for ‘assassination of a public servant in relation to a terrorist enterprise, attempted assassination of a public servant in relation to a terrorist enterprise, and conspiracy in terrorism’.
Computer records and telephone intercepts have linked Harpon to a ‘radical Islamist group’ such as ISIS of Al-Qaeda, said a source close to the case.
Iham Harpon remains in custody, and is also believed to have offered evidence against her husband.
Investigators now believe there was a terrorist motivation for the slaughter, which caused the worst loss of French police lives in a single day since World War II.
Harpon had converted to Islam 18 months ago, and his wife is also a Muslim who comes from an Arab background.
The nature of the attack corresponded with similar ones carried out by terrorists affiliated to ISIS and Al-Qaeda.
It is thought that the knifeman shouted ‘Allahu Akbar’ at his flat the night before he slaughtered four of his colleagues, according to a policeman who lived in the same building as Harpon.
The couple were both registered as profoundly deaf, and have two children aged nine and three.
Iham is now communicating with officers through sign language, making her interview ‘very complicated,’ said the source.
