(Nice) French authorities have stepped in after parents gave their child the name Mohamed Merah, the same name as the jihadist who murdered seven people, including three Jewish children in 2012.
The self-proclaimed Al-Qaeda inspired jihadist killed three soldiers before shocking the world when he gunned down three Jewish school children and a rabbi. Nice prosecutor Jean-Michel Prêtre said on Friday.
"Everyone knows that Mohamed Merah is the name of the person who in 2012 was behind the terrorist acts in Toulouse and Montauban,"
So much for moderate Islam then.
