(Brussels Times) Brussels police have removed a number of posters depicting cartoons of the prophet Mohammed in the past week, Bruzz reports.
The posters featured cartoons drawn by the artist known as Charb for the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo. Charb, born Stéphane Charbonnier, was one of the victims of the attack on the Paris offices of the magazine in January 2015, in which 12 members of staff were killed by two gunmen protesting the publication of the caricatures.
The drawings were also involved in the murder last Friday on the street in Paris of Samuel Paty, a school history teacher who had shown his class two examples in answer to a question from students.
The Brussels police zone Brussels City-Ixelles confirmed having removed posters.
