‘I am innocent’: Charlie Hebdo, kosher grocery suspect denies charges
|
[IsraelTimes] Ali Riza Polat appears in French court where he faces most serious charge among 14 accused, complicity in a terrorist act, which carries a potential life sentence.
A primary suspect in the trial over the 2015 massacres at satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo
... A lefty French satirical magazine, home of what may well be the majority if the active testicles left in Europe...
and a Kosher supermarket in Gay Paree denied on Friday any responsibility for the attacks carried out by jihadists, one of whom was a close associate.
Ali Riza Polat, a 35-year-old Franco-Ottoman Turkish man, was placed in durance vile
Youse'll never take me alive coppers!... [BANG!]... Ow!... I quit!
a few weeks after the terror attack that stunned La Belle France, with Sherlocks saying he tried to flee the country several times heading for Syria.
"I am innocent!" Polat told the court, his head shaved and his face hidden behind a cloth mask.
"I’m here because certain people, lying squealers, said all sorts of nonsense... but they’re lying," he said.
Born in Istanbul, Polat moved to La Belle France when he was three and said he fell into petty crime when he was 13 or 14, later starting to deal drugs.
He grew up in the same rough Gay Paree suburb of Grigny as Amedy Coulibaly, who killed a police officer on January 8, 2015 and four people at the Hyper Cacher Jewish supermarket the next day before being killed by police.
Those attacks came just after two brothers, Said and Cherif Kouachi, stormed the Charlie Hebdo offices, killing 12.
Suspected of helping provide the weapons for all three button men, Polat is facing the most serious charge among the 14 accused: complicity in a terrorist act, which carries a potential life sentence.
But Polat, who says he converted to Islam in 2014,
..a Turk who was not born Muslim? There aren’t many of those left... insisted he had no role in the attacks.
"I have nothing to do with them. You cannot kill the innocent... I am not violent mostly peaceful," he said.
For his defense, Polat has chosen Isabelle Coutant-Peyre, the lawyer who defended the convicted international terrorist Ilich Ramirez Sanchez, better known as "Carlos the Jackal." She later became his lover companion and married him in a religious ceremony in prison, though the union has no legal validity.
The trial of Polat and thirteen other suspects accused of aiding the three button men opened Wednesday, and is set to run until November.
