(AFP) The Tunisian migrant who was shot and seriously wounded after killing three people in a knife attack on a French church last month was flown Friday from the southern city of Nice to Paris for treatment.
Brahim Aouissaoui, 21, was flown under heavy guard to Le Bourget airfield north of the French capital, according to airport sources.
“He is gone, and for us it’s a relief,” Michel Fuentes, secretary general of the FO Sante medical labour union, told AFP.
Staff at the CHU Pasteur hospital treating Aouissaoui had expressed “concern” about his presence there, he said, adding that for many it brought back bad memories of the July 14 terror attack on the city four years ago that killed 86 and injured dozens.
