PARIS (AP) – A French anti-terror judge has charged the first suspects in connection with the Jan. 7-9 Paris terror attacks in which brothers Said and Cherif Kouachi and their friend Amedy Coulibaly slaughtered 17 people before being killed by police. Here is a summary of what is known about these four suspects and others wanted in connection with France’s bloodiest terror attacks in decades.
THE SUSPECTS
The four suspects charged Wednesday were: Willy P., Christophe R., Tonino G. and Mickael A. The first three were charged with procuring weapons, a car and other gear for Coulibaly, who killed a policewoman and four hostages at a kosher grocery. Mickael A., was charged with possession and transport of a weapon in connection with a terrorist operation. Prosecutors say some of his DNA turned up on a revolver found in Coulibaly’s apartment and on one of the gloves he wore during the attack. They say Mikael A. met Coulibaly in prison between November 2011 and May 2013. All suspects except Tonino G. have criminal records, including mainly driving without a license and aggravated robbery.
