In France completes its legal arsenal against terrorism

The French Council of Ministers shall examine a text Wednesday to quell military training to foreign persons suspected of planning attacks. The purpose of this text by François Hollande promised and the Minister of the Interior, Manuel Valls, is to fill a lacuna highlighted, according to police, the case of Mohamed Merah, which killed seven people last March. Specialists safety issues bemoan the lack, France, texts to suppress jihadist training camps abroad, like those for pedophile offenses outside France.



This project on the security and the fight against terrorism must allow to suppress military training to foreign persons suspected of planning attacks.
President François Hollande hoped that the anti-terrorism bill discussed Wednesday by the Council of Ministers, six months after the killing of Mohamed Merah or "adopted if possible before the end of the year," reported the government spokesman Najat Belkacem-Vallaud.
This project on security and the fight against terrorism was presented by the Minister of the Interior Manuel Valls. This text should help quell military training to foreign persons suspected of planning attacks. The aim is: to fill a lacuna highlighted, according to police, the case of Mohamed Merah, which killed seven people last March.
Sentenced to ten years in prison and a fine of € 225,000
The text gives French courts a "universal competence to judge the acts of terrorism committed by French nationals abroad," the Interior Ministry. Article 2 creates a new section of the Criminal Code (113-13), stating that "the criminal law applies to crimes as acts of terrorism and repression (as such), committed by a French national outside the territory of the Republic. "
Until, that the French courts consider such acts had to challenge the authorities of the country concerned, determine the facts, denounced France and lead to completion of extradition proceedings. The text does not specify penalties, since they remain unchanged, ten years in prison and a fine of € 225,000.
"A very high level" terrorist threat
"The terrorist threat remains in France at a very high level. Toulouse events in March on our soil (Case Merah) remain in everyone's minds," said Dr. Belkacem in his report, arguing that it was " necessary for our country to develop the administrative and judicial capacity. "
"Instruments already performing against terrorism exist in France, but it was necessary to arrive today to better detect individual paths as collective shift towards radicalization and terrorist violence, better get to identify sectors of transport to the indoctrination camps that may exist in a number of countries, "she developed.

It also detect "the spread of radicalism and jihadism on the Internet or to identify those returning to France after training or participation in a terrorist nature of conflicts around the world." Thus, the project extends further "three years" the ability to monitor in an administrative data connection from the phone or internet, but want to get the perpetuation of this system.
