The other lawyer of Naïm Boudaoud, accused, questions the witness at the bar. “Did you ever talk about religion with Anzorov?”
Tofigue C., friend of the terrorist and witness at this trial, on the stand. “Yes”
The lawyer recalls the witness’s comments to investigators during his custody. He had mentioned prayers, what types of clothes to wear or not, about diversity…
“You also mentioned more complex issues like Sharia law, and what could happen in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. You say you are a ‘simple classic basic Muslim’ but we have the impression that you are a referent for Abdoullakh Anzorov…” comments the lawyer, recalling that the witness also has a library well stocked with religious books.
Tofigue C., friend of the terrorist: “What he (terrorist Anzorov) perpetrated, the attack, the jihadist theses, I never subscribed. There are French imams who speak very well about that. Imam of Évreux clearly explained to us that all this was forbidden. You say that I am a reference for Anzorov, I do not agree (…) I am not going to push someone to do things that are. already against my values, the values of France and religious values.”
