The trial of the assassination of Samuel Paty

Start of the second week at the trial for the assassination of Samuel Paty before the special assize court of Paris where eight people are on trial, two of them for complicity in a terrorist assassination and six others, including a woman, for terrorist criminal association.

This Tuesday, November 12, the day will begin with Anne-Clémentine Larroque, specialist in Islamist ideology, who will return to the contextual elements in Chechnya (the terrorist Abdoullakh Anzorov who killed the professor was Chechen) and to the caricatures of the Prophet of Charlie Hebdo as well as the various attacks that occurred after their publication.

After her, it is the professor's colleagues and the principal of the Bois d'Aulne college in Conflans-Sainte-Honorine (), where Samuel Paty worked, who will take the stand to return to the threats which targeted their establishment and the professor in early October 2020, a few days before he was killed.

Minute by minute


The trial for the assassination of Samuel Paty is scheduled to last until December 20. Last week, for the first week of the hearing, only one of the eight accused, Ismail Gamaev, a Russian of Chechen origin, now aged 22, admitted his guilt in this tragedy. According to the prosecution, he “actively participated” with Abdoullakh Anzorov and Louqmane Ingar (another accused) to a Snapchat group exchanging, anonymously and encrypted, messages with jihadist content. He would have “comforted Abdoullakh Anzorov” in his assassination plan in the weeks preceding the act.
