(Reuters) More than five years after Islamist militants killed 12 of their colleagues, staff at French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo say they re-published cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad to tell the world they are “still standing” — albeit with a security detail.
Police officers guard the entrance to the magazine’s new, bunker-like office, and some staff have bodyguards shadowing them.
“We say ‘Good morning’ to the cops when we arrive in the morning,” said Laure Daussy, a writer who joined the magazine soon after the attacks. “That’s not something you ought to get use[d] to.”
The gunmen are dead, but on Sept. 2 a Paris court began hearing the trial of 14 people accused of being their accomplices.
