Eight people go on trial in Paris on terrorism charges on Monday over the gruesome 2020 murder of the French teacher who had shown his pupils a caricature of the Prophet Mohammed as part of a class on freedom of expression. The trial comes a year after six teenagers were found guilty of helping the assailant identify Samuel Paty. FRANCE 24’s Claire Paccalin reports from the courthouse in Paris.
