Another detained for teacher’s beheading

PARIS: Another person has been arrested in the suspected Islamist murder of a teacher near Paris, French prosecutors say.

The detainee – a friend of the suspected attacker, according to the prosecutors – takes the number of people in custody in relation to the attack to 11.

The brutal murder and decapitation of the 47-year-old history teacher in suburban Paris, apparently for discussing controversial caricatures of the Muslim Prophet Mohammed, has shocked France.
