“He looked quite normal, with his lunch. He rented a room after giving his ID,” reported the Log the receptionist Lucie Lalli.
Shaikh did not seem troubled to him “at all”.
“He did not appear anywhere in our lists [de clients indésirables] “, added the employee, who denounces that citizens have questioned the security of the motel in the media.

Unthinkable
