Paris Prosecutor’s office investigating murder of three people in center of Paris
Budrigannews.com – The city prosecutor’s office announced on Monday that a formal investigation has been initiated into the man who is suspected of killing three Kurdish people in Paris last week.
After two men and a woman were shot to death at a Kurdish cultural center and a nearby Kurdish cafe in the crowded central 10th district of Paris on Friday, the 69-year-old man, whose identity has not been made public, was arrested.
A community that was getting ready to mark the tenth anniversary of the unsolved murder of three activists was shocked by the killings, which sparked protests that culminated in confrontations with police over the weekend.
In accordance with French law, a formal investigation is initiated when substantial or consistent evidence suggests a suspect’s involvement in a crime.
The prosecutor’s office said in a statement that the investigation will look into charges of unauthorised weapon possession, attempted murder, and murder.
In addition, it suspected that the shootings were motivated by racism.

The shooting should be treated as a terrorist attack, according to representatives of the Kurdish community. They have likewise required a quiet dissent on Monday evening where the shootings occurred.
