(Radio France) After the explosion which killed Sami Amimour, the two surviving murderers lined up a group of terrified hostages and began herding them along the left-hand balcony of the Bataclan, in the direction of the stage. “It was,” explained one of Tuesday’s witnesses, “like being in the queue waiting outside the gates of hell.”
There were moments that, in other circumstances, could almost pass for normal.
Chatting with terrorists
Like when the terrorist Foued Mohamed Aggad, his weapon jammed, turned to the hostages and explained in a friendly tone, with a smile, “this Kalach is a piece of shit.” He could have been chatting to friends.
