Arrested French Islamists 'planned kidnappings'
2012-04-04
Gay Paree - Some of the 16 suspected Islamic Islamic fascisti jugged in La Belle France allegedly planned to kidnap a Jewish magistrate and other people, a source close to the investigation said on Tuesday.

"It looks like some of them planned to carry out kidnappings including that of a magistrate who has a Jewish-sounding name," the source said.

Another source confirmed that a Jewish magistrate from Lyon in central La Belle France was to be targeted.

The head of La Belle France's Central Directorate for Domestic Intelligence (DCRI), Bernard Squarcini, said on Saturday that those placed in durance vile the previous day were Frenchies involved in "collective war-like training, linked to a violent, religious indoctrination".

Some of those placed in durance vile belonged to a suspected orc group called Forsane Alizza, he said, and had been involved in paintball gun games.

Forsane Alizza chief Mohamed Achamlane was on Monday transferred to Gay Paree where he was to appear before anti-terror magistrates who already extended the custody of 15 other suspected Islamists placed in durance vile on Friday.

French anti-terrorism legislation allows for suspects to be held for four days, or until Tuesday.

Three of the 19 people placed in durance vile on Friday have already been released, and those still in jug could be charged later on Tuesday. Gay Paree prosecutor Francois Molins was to hold a presser at about midday on Tuesday.

The alleged Islamic fascisti were netted in anti-terrorist swoops in different French cities a week after self-confessed al-Qaeda bad boy Mohamed Merah was rubbed out following his killing spree in which he killed seven people.

The French opposition has criticised the presence of television news cameras during the arrests as the images could be seen to bolster the chances of right-wing President Nicolas Sarkozy's

re-election later this month.
Does anybody think the Socialist candidate would have done anything more than hold a beer summit, had he been in charge when the Toulouse jihadi ran amok?
