The imam of Bagnols-sur-Cèze, Mahjoub Mahjoubi, is in the sights of the authorities after comments made during a sermon. Abdallah Zekri, vice-president of the French Council of Muslim Worship (CFCM), denounced the imam's "ambiguous" remarks on the show Pascal Praud et vous.

"I considered the first day that he crossed the red line (...) What interest does he have in telling that in a sermon? (...) There, he lost his temper," he said.
