Spain nabs man tied to 2015 Paris attacks
Print Edition
SPANISH police said yesterday they had detained a Frenchman suspected of heading a weapons trafficking ring that supplied arms to one of the jihadists that killed 17 people in Paris in January 2015.
In a statement, police said Antoine Denevi, a 27-year-old from a small town in northern France, was detained on Tuesday in the southern Malaga area after Paris issued a Europe-wide arrest warrant.
He “left the neighboring country (France) weeks after the Paris attacks to escape police action, and settled in the province of Malaga from where he continued his illegal activities using fake papers,” the police said. “It’s also been determined that his activities were linked with people of Serbian origin.”
Denevi is suspected of arming Amedy Coulibaly, who shot dead a policewoman and took hostages in a Jewish supermarket, where he killed four people.
Coulibaly was an accomplice of the Kouachi brothers, who killed 12 people in an attack on the offices of the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo two days before Coulibaly held up the supermarket. All three were shot dead by police.
Both Spanish and French police participated in Tuesday’s operation, during which two others were detained — one from Serbia and another from Montenegro.
