Illustration of Justice -

It was this Wednesday morning that the trial of the January 2015 attacks began, affecting the editorial staff of Charlie Hebdo, the Montrouge police officers and the Hypercacher at the Porte de Vincennes.

Between January 7 and 9, 2015, the killings perpetrated by the Saïd and Chérif Kouachi brothers and in Amedy Coulibaly left 17 dead.

The three terrorists were killed.

Five years later, in the box of the accused, fourteen people are prosecuted, suspected of varying degrees of logistical support to the perpetrators of the attacks.

Among them, Ali Riza Polat, Franco-Turkish, 35 years old, longtime friend of Amedy Coulibaly.

He will be the only one to answer for "complicity in crime", suspected of being the "right arm" of jihadist Amedy Coulibaly.
