A woman and her two children, who were held in a camp in northeastern Syria, were repatriated to France on Monday, the National Anti-Terrorist Prosecutor’s Office (Pnat) told AFP on Tuesday, October 4, confirming information from several sources familiar with the matter.
This woman, of Franco-Moroccan nationality, who was notably targeted by an arrest warrant for “association of terrorist criminals”, was arrested on arrival and presented to a Parisian investigating judge, according to the Pnat. Her children were taken into care under an educational assistance procedure. Asked, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs did not comment immediately.
The woman and her children landed Monday evening at Le Bourget airport aboard a medical plane, said an airport source.
“I am delighted that two children, one of whom is very sick, have been repatriated with their mother and escaped the worst,” responded Marie Dosé, the woman’s lawyer, asked by AFP. “But the arbitrariness is in full swing: why them and not others? So many children are as sick as this little boy, and some even more so,” she however lamented.
On September 14, the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) condemned France for failing to properly study requests for the repatriation of families of jihadists in Syria.
