(Radio France) Frenchman Jonathan Geffroy is accused of terrorist offences in Syria, as are his wife and mother. [Geffroy] has provided valuable information for French anti-terrorism investigators.
Geffroy, 40, sits alone in the prisoner’s box at the Paris Special Criminal Court.
His two co-accused — his wife, Latifa Chadli, and his mother — are under judicial control and are free to sit in the open court, on the seats just outside the glass-walled high-security box.
The couple’s now eight-year-old child is a civil plaintiff in the case, and is represented by a victims’ support organisation.
