The man who stabbed one person to death and wounded six others in Mulhouse, eastern France, has been charged with terrorism offences and remanded in custody. Prime Minister François Bayrou said the attacker had been under a deportation order to Algeria for previous crimes, but Algeria had repeatedly refused to take him back.
The French anti-terrorism prosecutor, Pnat, has charged the attacker, identified as Brahim Abdessemed, with murder and attempted murder, and violence against public officials for using weapons against police officers who pursued him, on his stabbing spree in the covered market in Mulhouse on Saturday.
