Intense search underway for a suspected islamophobe responsible for stabbing a mosque attendee to death during prayers, which he documented on his phone.
Fresh Take:
In a chilling turn of events, France is on high alert after an 'extremely dangerous' and 'Islamophobic' assailant murdered a young Muslim man at a mosque in the quaint village of La Grand-Combe, near Alès. The cold-blooded attack was caught on camera, showing the barbaric and heinous actions of the killer.
The alleged culprit, identified as Oliver H, 21, is still on the loose as of now. According to investigative sources, Oliver H pretended to pray with the victim before launching an inhuman assault, striking him mercilessly at least 60 times. Witnesses also claim that he yelled out foul slurs against Allah and the Muslim faith during the atrocious act.
The fresh, un shaking, and unwelcoming face of Islamophobia was put on display as François Bayrou, the French Prime Minister, expressed his outrage on the social media platform X. He posted, 'A man of faith was brutally slain yesterday at the Grande-Combe mosque. The shame of Islamophobia was displayed on video. We stand in solidarity with the victim's loved ones and the shocked believers.'
Descriptions of Oliver H point to an unemployed French national with a Bosnian Serb background, born in Lyon in 2004. He reportedly posted a video of the heinous act before deleting it, and French police are leaving no stone unturned to apprehend him. Reports suggest that the crime was recorded on CCTV cameras inside the mosque, alongside footage of Islamophobic insults and comments.
France's anti-terror prosecutors' office is also considering taking over the murder investigation, due to the disturbing nature of the attack and the perpetrator's potential extremist motives. The Interior Minister, Bruno Retailleau, described the brutal act as 'appalling' and expressed his support for the victim's family and sympathy for the Muslim community who suffered this senseless violence in their place of worship on the holy day of prayer.
