Toxic materials found in his home
Investigators suspect that this man has a desire to “commit an attack” in the name of a “revolutionary socialist ideology”, but the investigations are starting, according to an AFP source familiar with the matter. A first drum containing toxic materials was discovered by chance near his home, then the open investigation made it possible to discover about fifteen thanks to research. These would be chemical or toxic products likely to enter into the composition of explosives.
