11:33 a.m., January 7, 2015: the Kouachi brothers burst into the editorial staff of the satirical weekly

.

In less than two minutes, they kill eleven people and then execute a police officer who tries to arrest them.

While they are on the run, one of their accomplices, Amédy Coulibaly continues their macabre project and shoots down a municipal policewoman in Montrouge.

The next day, he took the clients and staff of the Hyper Cacher at the Porte de Vincennes hostage and coldly killed four men.

Eleven people in the accused box

If the three terrorists were killed, the trial of fourteen people, suspected of having brought them, to varying degrees, their help, opens from Wednesday and for two months before the special assize court.

Three of them, under an international arrest warrant, will nevertheless be absent from the box.

Among the defendants present, only one of them will have to answer for complicity, the others being sent back for "criminal terrorist associations".

Even beyond the judicial aspect, the other stake of this trial will undoubtedly be cathartic for the 200 civil parties but also for the whole of society, deeply marked by these attacks.
