The satirical newspaper Siné Monthly reported on Friday that it had received death threats targeting some of its collaborators. The newspaper filed a complaint after Tuesday receiving five signed letters from the former Union Defense Group, better known by its acronym GUD, a far-right student union. "After Charlie, Siné," said, among other things, one of these letters posted in Indre-et-Loire, and addressed to the Paris headquarters of the editions of the newspaper.

But when they endorse the Charlie Hebdo attack , we take it to the next level, "Catherine Weil Sinet, the newspaper's director, told AFP. The newspaper, previously called Siné-Hebdo, had already received threats and was robbed in 2008.
