(Radio France) The third week of the trial of those suspected of involvement in the November 2015 terrorist attacks in Paris was entirely devoted to police and expert evidence. Much of what we heard and saw was difficult for the families of victims.
In the course of the week’s hearings, we listened to crime scene investigators, to the police surgeon who performed the autopsies on those killed, to an explosives expert. None of it was pleasant.
There was also the testimony of the police commissioner, unnamed for security reasons, who went into the Bataclan on his own initiative, armed with a [handgun], in the midst of a terrorist attack by a then-unknown number of men wielding weapons of war.
