This event was banned by the prefecture of Haute-Savoie.

The suspect “is clearly not someone radicalized”, according to the Minister of the Interior. “When you are used to Islamist attacks, you necessarily have a bias”, acknowledged Gérald Darmanin, Friday, after being questioned about the profile of the arrested man. The Minister of the Interior explained, on the set of BFMTV, that the alleged perpetrator was not “obviously not someone radicalized”. Important information, underlined the tenant of Place Beauvau, since it can imply that there is “no coordination with other attacks”.

The town hall, led by environmentalist François Astorg, announced in a press release on Friday that a white march would be organized on Sunday, in tribute to the six injured. The rally will begin at 11 a.m. at Parc du Pâquier, where the facts took place.
