French police detained seven suspected militants, including one Indian, on Tuesday in a raid linked to an investigation into militant networks in Pakistan, a source close to the inquiry said. The seven suspects were arrested in central Paris and in the northern suburb of Seine-Saint-Denis, the source said.
One was intercepted as he got off a flight that landed at Paris’s Roissy Charles de Gaulle airport from Algeria. France’s BFM television said the suspects were being questioned over possible links to two French nationals arrested earlier this year in Abbottabad.
