Crif press release, October 17, 2020 - Paris

Crif strongly condemns the barbaric Islamist attack on a history teacher who taught freedom of expression to his students.

The obvious complicity of the preachers of radical Islam must be denounced. Those who incite hatred have held the assassin's hand and are complicit in this ignominy. They must answer for their actions.

Crif bows to the victim of this despicable act, offers its condolences to his family. Crif also called to join the rally in tribute to Samuel Paty, Sunday, Place de la Republique, in Paris.
