(BBC) France’s anti-terror prosecutors have called for defendants on trial for a series of militant Islamist attacks in Paris to be given long jail terms.
The January 2015 attacks on Charlie Hebdo magazine, a policewoman and a Jewish supermarket left 17 people dead.
Fourteen people are appearing in court and three are being tried in absentia.
One of those being tried in absentia is Hayat Boumeddiene, the fugitive partner of Amedy Coulibaly who was killed after attacking the supermarket.
Two brothers are also being sought.
Prosecutors are seeking a life sentence for Ali Riza Polat, the main defendant, who is in court.
