French terror suspect tells court he's a victim of injustice
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}A French citizen with ties to the Charlie Hebdo attack in Paris has told a court in Bulgaria he is a victim of injustice.
Mourad Hamyd was arrested on a French arrest warrant in Bulgaria for allegedly planning to join the Islamic State group in Syria or Iraq.
He is the brother-in-law of one of the men who attacked the satirical newspaper in January 2015. He was initially suspected of a role in that attack, but his classmates launched a successful campaign to clear his name.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Hamyd agreed Wednesday to be extradited to France, but shouted "This is unjust!" before entering the courtroom.
At the end of the hearing he added: "I think that I am a victim of injustice. I have been declared a terrorist only because of suspicions."
