PanARMENIAN.Net - French President Nicolas Sarkozy said an
investigation has begun to see if the radical Islamic gunman Mohamed
Merah, who died after jumping from a window during a police siege,
had any accomplices, Belfast Telegraph reported.
Merah was suspected of killing three schoolchildren, a rabbi and
three paratroopers. He had travelled to Afghanistan and Pakistan
for training.
Sarkozy said that anyone who regularly visits "websites which support
terrorism or call for hate or violence will be punished by the law".
The president promised a crackdown on anyone who goes abroad "for
the purposes of indoctrination in terrorist ideology".
The Islamic extremist who boasted of killing seven people died today
after jumping from his window, gun in hand, in a fierce shootout with
French police.
Interior Minister Claude Gueant said the suspect, who claimed links
to al Qaeda, jumped out after police entered the Toulouse apartment
and found him holed up in the bathroom.
The death of Mohamed Merah, 23, ended a more than 32-hour siege with
an elite police squad trying to capture him alive.
