Neo-Nazi Teen Arrested in Le Havre for Plotting Mosque and School Attacks

The arrest of the young man took place last Tuesday. The DGSI elements managed this feat by investigating Leïla, a virtual friend of the arrested neo-Nazi arrested last April on suspicion of planning an attack on a school and a church in Hérault at Easter, and by discovering notebooks titled "Mein Kampf" at his home, which provide information on his plan to attack a mosque in Le Havre and his former high school, reports Le Parisien.

After his arrest, the 19-year-old was taken into custody, indicted on Friday for "criminal terrorist conspiracy" and then placed in pre-trial detention. Describing himself as a "white and nationalist fighter", "an extremist supporter of Hitler’s political vision", deeply racist, and claiming to be a victim of school bullying, he was planning to carry out his attack plan on April 20, 2022, the anniversary of the birth of the German dictator. The accused was planning a mass killing, "to do worse than Columbine", the shooting in the United States that left 15 dead and 24 wounded on April 20, 1999.

During his custody, he assumed his positions and developed ideas according to which "the State is not doing enough to fight radical Islamism", Western culture is threatened by "the great replacement", "the delinquency of foreigners is only increasing", it is specified.
