Eight people are going on trial in Paris accused of terrorism charges over the beheading of a teacher four years ago.<\/p>\n

Samuel Paty, 47, was murdered by an Islamic extremist near his school on 16 October 2020 in an attack that shocked France<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Police shot dead an 18-year-old Russian of Chechen origin, Abdullah Anzorov, soon after the attack.<\/p>\n

Mr Paty was attacked after holding a class on freedom of expression for his middle school students when he showed caricatures of the Prophet Mohammad – an act considered blasphemy by many Muslims.<\/p>\n

Those on trial include friends of Anzorov who are accused of helping to buy weapons for the attack.<\/p>\n

Others in court are people who allegedly spread false information online about the teacher and his class.<\/p>\n

Members of Mr Paty’s family, including his two sisters, were at the court for the start of the trial, which is being held under high security.<\/p>\n

Five of the accused, who are currently imprisoned, were seated in a wide glass box.<\/p>\n

Three others, placed under judicial supervision, sat on the defendants’ benches outside the box.<\/p>\n

Much attention at the trial will focus on Brahim Chnina, the Muslim father of a teenager who was 13 at the time and who had claimed she had been excluded from Mr Paty’s class when he showed the caricatures.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Chnina, 52, allegedly sent a series of messages to his contacts denouncing Mr Paty, along with the address of the school in the Paris suburb of Conflans Saint-Honorine.<\/p>\n

In reality, Chnina’s daughter had lied to him and had never attended the lesson in question.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
